FRIENDSHIP BOOK

My daughter had some friends over the night of my baby shower. So, there were tons of pictures. I wanted to put something together that she could cherish and have forever. This way she would never forget the shower or the fun times she had that day and evening. I thought the lil book turned out very nicely :) I used alot of flowers. I used the graphically speaking cricut cartridge for the "best of friends" title. I also embossed the backing to give it some cute lil texure. I also used an assortment of friendship stickers. I left a place on the inside front cover for MacKenzie to write up something that she wanted about the shower, the day, her friends, etc. I will have to be sure to remind her to put the date in there so we never forget. Anyway....hope you like this lil book and get some inspiration from in for your next mini!!!!

BABY GIFT FOR A FRIEND

This was a mini book that I put together for a friend of mine that has been pregnant the same time as me. She is exactly 4 weeks behind me. So, I wanted to make her something to show her that I was thinking about her and followed her pregnancy whenever she posted things on facebook and such.
She said she really liked monkeys, so I tried to incorporate that into the book.
I left room for journaling and/or pics whatever she decided. I hope she loves it as much as I did. This was a very consuming project. Took me 5 hours to put this together. I wish I would have done more 3D on some of it, but overall I am happy with it. :)
