i will upload some photos of a couple of them that i have done after the weekend. I make them out of cardstock and you can hold them to gether with rings or glue them and you stick photos and put some journalling and embellishments in. I don't find them as daunting as whole pages.

here is a page with some ideas and instructions

thank you! that looks like fun - i will most definitely try it, when we get home i could make one for her with pics of our trip and send it to her - she'd like that actually.

my sister has made cards that are like books - this is a smaller version i guess, she's very clever and artistic so when she admires something I've done i feel quite proud!

hurrah! I made it first thing this morning......as there's no extortionate postage costs 'cos I'm bringing it over myself, well ~ see how high i made that daisy!

I took 3 pics because i just wanted to!

Oh gosh! That is just lovely! That's the sort of card the recipient will keep in a treasure box.

awww thank you both very much - they loved the card which made me very happy!

hubby said the other day it costs me a fortune to make the cards, but i just take way too long to make them to be able to make it a business and i don't feel confident that they're up to that standard.
