A friend of mine is hitting the big 5 0 next month, and is having a party. She asked me if I could make her a guest book for the people who come to it to write messages in, and asked for it to be themed black and silver, with "bling".
And this is what I came up with...
The cover was a textured black paper, covering a chipboard base. I cut a small square out of the chipboard, and made an aperture which I filled with silver mirri card and "blingy" gem initials and numbers.
The swirl was a stamp (I've forgotten who made it) stamped with flitter glu and covered with silver gilding flakes.
I included a black feaher and a digi stamp of a shoe, coloured in with promarkers, glittered with glamour dust and covered with glossy accents.
The sentiment was stamped, but again, I have removed it from its packaging and I can't remember who provided it!
I used book rings to keep it all together, and inside placed a number of sheets of thin black card for signing.
I put it into a box for storing, that was made from centura pearl cardstock. On the lid, I stamped and embossed the same swirl as on the front cover with black rainbow sparkle, and stuck the same flower gems onto it.
