A scrapbook for a birthday

What goes into yours?

I had this idea.

I put in some photos

and some letters

and some cards,

and some money

and then it grew…

there were poems,

and quotes

and pockets

and memorabilia

and it grew…

a theatre card,

flowers,

memories,

an accordian fold book,

a beer mat,

lots and lots of love

and bunting of course!

It just grew and

It just grew, just like Topsy!

Here are a few pictures and the rest of the project is here

The presentation box

I used page protectors for the coins, the pockets are sewn on my sewing machine. The coins are locked in with hand stitching.  Thanks to Shimelle Lane for the class on using your stash!

This was such a wonderful project to do and gave me lots of opportunities to try different techniques.

He loved it.
