I usually run my creations by my nan as she likes to see what I've been doing.
She made a comment when i showed her my mums Birthday word book (that i posted a while back) that she would like one. I was planning it for Christmas but felt bad making her wait so long!! so i turned it into a 'Just because' pressie.
I recently ordered some prints, i made her a 'brag book' with some of the duplicates that she was going to be given anyway. The book contains all her grandchildren, plus me and my mum on the back.
She loved it and had a tear in her eye bless her....
I picked Purple as its her favourite colour but tried to keep it simple as it is only a small book from the Papermania basics range. Also the papers from Henbury Lane are so cute and some have glitter accents, i didn't want to hide all the gorgeous patterns.
I have used some die cuts, bling and butterflies to decorate but mainly glitter transfers - i love them!! need more!! for 99p in the sale as shown in my last shopping post i am annoyed with myself for not stocking up :(
Thanks for stopping by
Sherie - this is so lovely. Your Nan must have been very pleased to receive it, and what better reason than - just because!
