Craft All Day

Hello to you all !!!! my share this evening is my DT piece for Craft All Day. I have altered a note book, first time I have done one of these but really enjoyed it. I first backed the book with some paper from K& Co then stamped and embossed the words, added some cream ribbon down the spine. The hinges were made with one half of a Marianne creatable lamp post and black card candy. I then made the tiny envelope and added the roses. I hope you like it.xxx
Supplies used all available from Craft All Day
