Phew, it's been a busy week, with lots of celebrations, including our 25th anniversary, my birthday and last but not least, Paige's 18th. I can't believe my youngest is 18!!!!!! She had a wonderful day, 21 one of us went to Drayton Manor Park and Zoo and hit the rides then had a big family picnic.
I'm going to show you the card, I made for Paige. I used the tutorial from my friend, Gina's blog. Paige loves 50's fashion and loved her card.
After doing the construction of the book, I started decorating, the front cover is using some dress making pattern papers, sorry not sure what company it is, I found it in my stash. I cut a square of red gingham on the front with added "18" chipboard and some tape measure ribbon.
The inside is decorated with G.C.D. Melody Ross Homespun Chic, I love the dresses.
I adhered the tape ribbon around the front of the book and added a little jar of buttons and some cotton reels.
It's week 4 of Our Beautiful World and the theme is DETAILS, so here's a close up of the inside of the card.
Here's a few photo's of the birthday trip.

Thanks for stopping by, enjoy the rest of the week, I hope to be back tomorrow with some FO's.
