Sweet Threads Flip Book

Hello and happy Friday.  Today I am guest designer over at Tombow again and I am sharing this little Flip book that I made. The construction of the book was quick and easy following the instructions from Lisa Sommerville's awesome tutorial that I found here

I used paper from the Basic Grey Sweet Threads line for the covers and pages of the book. I used the Daisy Patch die from Heartfelt Creations to create the flower for the cover.  The leaf flourishes are from a Sizzix die.  I ran the leaves through the Cuttlebug with my favorite Textile Texture embossing folder.  If I was stranded on an island (hopefully a tropical one) and could only take one embossing folder, this is the one I would take.  I center of the flower is adorned with a button and rhinestone and a few more rhinestones were scattered around the cover for a little added bling.

I am giving this little book to my friends10 year old daughter, Rachel.  Rachel told her mom that she wants to come and live with me.  I think she just wants to live in my studio.  Her eyes get big and wide when she goes in there.  I can't wait to see what she puts inside the book. 

I was going to share a few photos of the creative process but blogger is being a bugger today.  You can hop over to Tombow though and check them out.  While you are there I would love it if you would leave a comment letting me/and them know what you think.  I would love to become a permanent part of their team.  What a dream that would be!

See you soon,
