Well, I am going through my stash and trying to get some pictures on here! One of my favourites is a little sewing form mini that I did for a good friend of mine. I used almost all Graphic 45 paper, but it was from several different lines including my fave, Fashionista. It was a fun book to put together as I had no photographs, only sentiments to write down. This means I could decorate the pages without leaving 'white space' for photos. Not only was this easier, but it was very liberating as well. The reason I didn't need pictures is because I wrote and created the book for remembering what qualities I admired in her. A book to celebrate our friendship.

| Just a little tag to say I did it. Only later did I think to make a fabric tag with this info, which would have been nice too! |
