Sweet Sentiments of Spring



This project is a slight departure from my usual style.  I was inspired to make this little book when I scored the Matchbook die at a local crafty outlet.  I decided to use Graphic 45's Sweet Sentiments as the theme, since I could really use a dose of spring!  It has been a tough winter in Kalamazoo, Michigan!

Happy National Craft Month:  There is a full tutorial for this project over here on the Graphic 45 blog.  




Inside I affixed my pages with ribbon.  The holes were reinforced with eyelets to give it a finished look. 




My love of tissue tape shines through again.  I framed each of my pages with the trusty tape I love so much.




Here is a better picture of the eyelets.   I always find vintage ones at garage sales and I love them.  






I can't wait until the spring weather heralds in the garage sale season, it has been a while since I have been junking.

Cheers, 

Rhea
