I'm in!!  I have always loved this folio but have yet to make it.  Life's been a bit hectic around here and I needed something to take my mind off of the world.  Perfect timing!    

This is great.  That cover looks like it's 3D.  

Your book is looking awesome so far.  Helping a friend out is more important than the book since you can always go back to it.  Dealing with some grief myself here but the 4-legged kind.  Hope you find the time soon to finish the book.  

Happy New Year to everyone!

The book looks like it's coming along nicely!  Great job. 

Christine Umthun ooooh, a cruise to the panama canal.  Thanks sounds fun. And a reason to make another book.  LOL

Welcome y'all!

Francės Longok, i failed this class.  never started it, never made it.  Just too busy these last few weeks.  When is the next challenge?

OK...where do I start?  First of all, an amazing book by Shayne!  Especially for someone that does not make books.  He really thought outside the box and there are some really unique features in this book that I have never seen before.  The front pullout photos...awesome.  Coolest ever.  Punching only 1 corner is really fun and I've never seen that done.  The charms and handmade ropes!!!  WHAT?  The continuation matting...he has way too much time on his hands.  The matting itself was impeccable.  He has more patience than I do.  The wrap around matting is so freakin cool!  But...the best thing about this album has to be the way he made the waterfall page - slipping each flap into the paper is beyond unique!  But, that pop-up mushroom!!!  The best.  I think this album is one of them most unique I've seen in a long time.  It's also got a very masculine look and feel to it.  Well done my brother from another mother!!  LOL
