The One with Dawn's Book


Friday, June 25, 2010

Dawn emailed me shortly after I posted pictures of Lyndsey's book and commissioned me to make her a book in pink. Here it 'tis:
Photobucket
It's 5x7".
Photobucket
It has Plexiglas covers.
Photobucket
It's made from all shades of pink cardstock, pink patterned paper, pink glittered cardstock, pink patterned transparencies, and pink patterned flocked paper.
Photobucket
It's bound using the coptic style so the binding is exposed - this is my favorite type of binding.
Photobucket
It's sewn together using light pink DMC embroidery floss which I coated with bee's wax.
Photobucket
From start to finish it took about 6 hours to make.
Photobucket
It'll be great place to store photos, write notes, and journal little stories of her daughter.
Photobucket
This concludes my show and tell :)
