A Gift for Secret Santa - AVSC 2019

Hi all, 

Well as this year closes I am now winding back on all my Christmas crafting,

  I wanted to show you what I created for my secret santa with AVSC.

There were four rules.. 

1. A handmade Card

2. A handmade gift

3.Something small brought.

4. Something yummy

I decided on choccies for my yummy, I mean who goes wrong with them right !!

I made a card to send.

I brought some bling, stickers and a set of cards that you had to put together (which I forgot to photograph of course).

And I made a recipe book.. (disclaimer: I had made this kind of book before as a design project with AVSC) but I changed a few things around with this one and I think it is nicer.. 

I hope my recipient likes it.. 

 The Recipe Book

The cover is a shaker card with a canvas stamped spine.

I placed a pocket on the inside cover and a pocket on the first page that pulls out with recipes on them..

A fold down pocket with recipe cards inside and underneath as well as a pull out tab on the other page and all recipes on it..

A simple recipe card on the left and a flip through on the right with all recipes.

Velcro does hold the ribbon down to help close it.

A flip up on the left with recipes inside the pocket and another fold down pocket on the right.

Again pull out recipes from both pages..

I adore this book and the style and will be making more..

The choccies and the card I made but forgot to take a photo of all the other stuff, talk about forgetful.

Anyway I sure hope she likes it all..

I hope I have inspired you

to create glorious things
