So I went out on a limb and tried something new to me.....my project this time is a Star Book. I kind of loved making it and can see that it would be a great gift for a new Grandma/Grandpa or Auntie/Uncle with pics on each section or for a best friend to remind them how important they are too you. So many ways to do this one again.
I started by doing all my cutting and putting together the outside layers, then worked on my inside panels. Word of caution, put everything else together and add your inside panels last, especially if you have anything that isn't flat!
The back cover done the same way, also used Small Talk from Tim Holtz around the edges. |
There are 6 separate sections, 3 I had done in pastelly colors and 3 are done in the red/gray theme.

ReplyDeleteI haven't made a star book in ages! You have inspired me to make one with your beautiful creation. I absolutely adore how you made your front & back cover with a gelli plate and a EC Heart brad! Brilliant!

ReplyDeleteI really love the cover you created and the pages are all so creative and beautiful! I have made one star book and it didn't lay well. Did you follow a particular tutorial? In my life I will eventually make a proper star book! Thanks so much for the inspiration! <3
