star book 2

Remember my previous star book?

Well I made another one, this time for my dad for his name day
(a catholic tradition, you are named after a saint, and on his/her day, it is your "fete")

This time I decided to use a different technique

and followed this tutorial,

from the Carol Duval Show.

I found a cute little book about champagne for $1.19
with a black cover, just perfect,
not that the subject matters,but I had fun reading the book, so a plus!

I followed the directions in the tutorial,
glued and decorated my pages.
I used green and ivory cardstocks.

I stamped my heart away to make some backgrounds.

Following the directions,

I added some pockets,

and tags, for decorations or they can be used for book marks.



I added some special photos

like my parents' wedding picture

and Miss C. and Brick Master portrait.

I think it turned out nicely,

hopefully my dad will like it,

he is not much of an artsy crafty kind of guy,

 but he usually enjoys all the stuff I make,

signs of a true Dad!

Bonne fete, Papa!

Happy crafting!
