Word Album Friendship

Hi as I have finished my college work for this term, hopefully, fingers crossed, yippee, I can post a few things on my blog.  This is an album I made for my neice for finishing college.  Graduating as the Americans call it but without the ceremony!  I keep saying this but I dont get the opportunity to play in pink very often so when i can I take it.  I am also glad to say my neice loved the album, phew!

The letters were cut from the Old West Cart from DCWV The Sweet stack which has some lovely papers in.  Ribbons from my stash and some vintage lace from my Dad's stash that he left me.  Bound with my lovely Cinch, I love my Cinch!  Its so easy to bind stuff with it.  Letters were cut out at approx 9.5 cms (3.5 inches) with the word "ship" cut from Gypsy Font and welded together.  The box I made from a 12 x 12 peice of paper just fashioned round the album with acetate wrapped round and eyelets fastened on using my cropadile II, then I threaded ribbon through to hold it all together.



This is the Vintage lace.  
Thanks for looking.
