Book for Alyssa

This is the book I made for Alyssa. Again her room is decorated in pink & brown. She just loved it.

I used my BIA to punch the holes and bind the book with 1/2" o-wires (white). Oh, I just realized that I forgot to put ribbons on the wires. Oh well, she loved it anyway. I got more requests from the girl's that they want a book & door hanger for their b-days.

I, of course, used my ATG gun to attach all of the cardstock for the covers.

I used 140lb. watercolor paper (very strong & cuts beautifully in the cricut - I just put my blade depth on 6)

For the front cover, I cut out different size flowers from the George Cart (I think) on a strip of scrap cardstock. I used them as a template & sponged ink in the flower cut outs all over the pink part of the cover. Then I attached pink & brown prima flowers with dark pink & light pink skittles in the middle of the flowers.

Inside Front Cover:

 For the inside of the front cover, I just cut out the crown on the Alphalicious Cart in Shortstack Shadow in brown & Shortstack in pink. Layered them both them glittered the round tops of the crown. I then stamped a princess crown (sorry, I don't remember the name of the stamp set) on that with ColorBox Pigment Ink.

Inside Back Cover:

On the inside back cover I used the Alphalicious cart again for her name. Again cut it in shadow & regular. I used CDS to weld the name together. I used the same stamp set & ink as above for both stamps on this page.

Just like the book that I made for Gretchen, I used regular copy paper for the inside pages. I cut them the same size (5 1/2") as the covers. I also used the BIA to punch the holes.

Thanks for looking. Questions and comments are always welcomed.
