Hello friends
So what is going on with the weather?? Snow blizzards - my daffodils are about to flower and now
they are covered with snow! I managed to get to the studio yesterday but I recommend
we all stay in the warm and craft.
Talking of craft - how about a little book?
This is a project I created for Spellbinders and it has just appeared in their Idea Gallery.
It is a 'thoughts' or 'mood' book with tabs, happy sad etc.
The idea is that you can grab it and have tabs to match what you need to write.
I decorated the cover using the Flourish Trim Die D-Lite and using Spellbinders foils.
I do have a limited amount of foils in the shop and more arriving soon.
I love how two pieces of the Flourish Trim align to each other.
Now I need to announce a winner of the A2 Curved Borders One.
I asked Bella to stick her nose in the cup of winners and take out one...she managed to
rummage in the cup and flick one up onto her head!
Honestly it couldn't have happened like that if you planned it.
It was decided we should honour the 'head' winner and that is....
SALLY (Irvin)
Congratulations - please drop me an email so I can organise getting the dies to you.
Oh yes..I was asked yesterday what box die I used for the trio of boxes it is
Square Petal Top Box.
Take care friends - I'm back tomorrow.

Good morning Christine,
your book would make a lovely present.
Let's hope that we won't get any more of the white stuff. My magnolia is out in flower and looks strange with snow on it. Doesn't do the flowers much good, either.
HAVE A GOOD DAY

What a great idea this book is. I love the way you've put the dies opposite one another like that. You see so many things differently!
Congratulations to Sally.
Very cold here this morning, but only a light dusting of snow, very much hoping it stays that way!

Oooh, congrats to the winner, but I wish it had been me! That is the best way of using that flourish die I have seen, I wasn't ever keen on it's asymmetric shape, somehow.
Hello Christine
Wow...can't believe I have won :-) Think I need to get Bella a treat for picking my name.
I like the book, I think I will try to make one for my daughter, she is always making notes.
Thank you again for making me a winner :-)

I love the little book, and very impressed with the way you use the 2 dies together, I will have to have a go at that.
Well done to Sally for winning the prize, hope she brings them into the club so I can have a go with them LOL!!

I,m a new follower to your blog, you have some great creative ideas. xxx
Morning Christine, What a brilliant idea and the front of your book is so beautiful.
Congratulations to Sally, you lucky lady, enjoy your new dies.
Lets hope this weather improves, I thought we had missed it yesterday, but no, we got it at lunchtime and eveningtime, and it is bitterly cold. Bring on Spring and Summer, I've had more than enough of this cold weather, brrrr.

Hi Christine, I can see many uses for this book.I am thinking as a keepsake. All my daughters have yearly boxes with bits in and the book may jog their memories as to the meaning of the items in the box
We have escaped the snow here in the Fens but very cold and windy. Keep warm and craft. X Ros
Morning Christine, sorry to say we have sunshine in cornwall, altho it is very cold but no snow. I love the thoughts book, lovely idea and gorgeous papers. Congrats to the winner. Emma
Congrats Sally, nice trick Bella! Love your book Christine, have that die and didnt think of using it that way, all these ideas.
Hi Christine,yes, verrrry cold but here the sun is shinning and we have no snow. Spring, please come soon we ALL need a pickmeup!
Your little mood book is a lovely idea, we should have a daily weather book to go with it.
Congrats to Sally for winning the dies, Bella, make sure you get your bonus Bonio for the head flick.
