Anniversary Present for my husband

Dec 20, 2005 6 Replies

It was our first anniversary yesterday so I made John a little present



- I covered an AOL box with torn scrapbook paper and decorated it with stickers and punchies and ribbon and a few 3D bits and pieces I had lying around... then I made a tiny little heart-shaped booklet from co-ordinating papers and decorated that with stickers and punchies and vellum quotes. It's not really as bright pink as it came out in the photo - the flash washed it out and I'll have to try photographing it when it's nice and light and I can turn the flash off. The ribbon is burgundy and the papers are more like the colours of the little album (in fact, two of them are the same papers...)
