The August challenge (mostly) completed. I started this theme b/c pretty paper by Graphic 45, of course. I was working on it while staying with a friend post shoulder replacement - nurse Christine. She is going on a Hawaiian cruise this winter, so I'm leaving a lot of the design like the cover and stickers for when she makes this her own. I took a lot of risks using a die for the waterfalls and flaps. Still figuring out which dies will work best with what.

Love this so much! And that you live on the Isle of Wight! Only took one class for me as well. This is gorgeous! The papers are gorgeous. Well done, you!

I will just say, I could have made better sticker placements, but by the time the day was long my bronchitis was acting back up and I got punchy. Oh well, the client likes it!

Well, the pinwheel folio *slightly* altered to make it portrait style photos and more pockets. I have made the pinwheel folio many times and find they are perfect for grandma brag books. This is the 2nd for the same client! First I have re- engineered. Thanks Frances!

Way to persevere! It looks beautiful. Yeah, I said a few naughty words making mine! Lol. This is very well done

Lovely! Thank you for sharing. This one that I have never made (I know, Frances, shocking! ). I just may have to now, though, after you show it's versatility. Beautiful!
