HAPPY THURSDAY!
I quickly put together a "going away" scrapbook for a colleague earlier this week... co-workers had written little notes/messages for her and sent them via email... I just put them together to "look pretty" and didn't really have time to fuss or make the project too fancy. Yet... I think it turned out nice. The recipient loved it; which is all that matters!
(a little secret: the book itself was a Goodwill find, unused Winnie-the-Pooh, for $1.50... I love buying these when I see them and having them on hand for last minute projects)
Winnie got covered with flowers... (i'm sure he didn't mind)
I incorporated ribbons, laces, silk and fabric flowers...buttons... just a few little things to spruce up the pages quickly.
...I was able to use some of the charms I received in a recent swap...
At the back of the book I included an envelope with blank tags... to be used by those you didn't get a chance to email their messages to me on time... they could write a short, sweet message...
I was happy with the results of this last-minute project...
I had almost forgotten just how much fun scrapbooking can be!
That is awesome. I am sure she loved it. I love that you used a winnie the pooh book and just covered winnie. So clever.
