I'm on a roll...

I needed another last minute gift and thank goodness I had some extra albums in my stash to create this gift. Last week Michaels Crafts had the albums on sale so I stocked up. I'm trying to make some of them for the high school craft show. It's been years since I've done a craft show, but my son's high school asked if I would do it this year. What the heck, I'll try it. Who knows if I'll sell anything. If I don't, I'll be stocked up on last minute gifts for awhile. I hope you're not getting sick of seeing these. Well here's what I came up with...
Here's a close-up photo. I love to use the little jewerly charms on the book. Another trick is that I don't buy the individual silk flower petals at the scrapbooking store. It's to expensive. I go to the craft store and buy and entire hyndraga flower stem and tear the individual petals apart. Remember to bring your 40% off coupon to the store. Add a rhinestone in the center and there you have it. It's much cheaper to do this.
The tag in the pocket comes out and can be a pretty bookmark. Add a little rhinestone and there you have it a bit of glitz!!

Next time you need a gift for someone special, try creating a gift from your heart....
