Finally finished the birthday book!













One of the classes I took when Dee Gruenig was at my LSS was an acrylic birthday book. I didn't finish it in class, and I've been working on it almost every night. Well I finally finished it, and wow! Now I don't want to give it to anyone! I think I might send it to my mom, she turns 60 in December this year. I know it's safe to post, she has no interest in papercrafting and doesn't read my blog. All the paper was given to us so I don't know who makes the paper, but I was at AC Moore the other day and I saw the paper there for sale. All the stamps are Dee's new duet stamps. You stamp the image and then an outline of the image in black. It really makes the images pop. The page with the pocket is really a pocket, it can hold a gift card. Hope you're all having a great week!

Hi Heidi, the book is great! That paper is so bright and cheery...perfect for a birthday gift! Know what you mean about not wanting to give it away though. I'm not sure I would either! LOL! Those stamps look cool too. Gonna have to look for them. Hope you're doing well. Katie

Heidi I don't blame you for not wanting to get rid of it. I can see lots of work went into making it. You did a super job on it, love the vivid colors.
