I have been making this journal as a Christmas present (Vicky don't look!!), and have finally finished it today. Having looked at the challenges it fits the CCT challenge, punches, and the LOTV challenge New Year (tenuous, but it has 2009 on it and it is a journal for next year!)
I used my Bind-it-All to make the book.
I stamped this gorgeous PB stamp, Water skiing, in Versafine Sepia, and watercoloured it with my pencils. I added scrolls using the sepia ink. I used K and Co papers for the covers, matting and flowers. I used my Stampin Up Scallop punch and my X cut flower punches. The tag and numbers were cut out using my Cuttlebug Olivia alphabet. The ribbons are from my stash.Some of the inside pages:
The scroll stamps are from the Angel Company, and the flower and grass stamps are Magnolia. The inks are from Making Memories.
I hope she likes it.
