Here are some cards I made for a card swap over at Mini Album Scrap. I will post the cards I get in return once they arrive. The card on the left has a usable bookmark that you can remove from the card. If you want to know how to make this card, follow this link where I got the idea from a Stampin Up demonstrator. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fhIBtv0pvc8

I'm going to try and make a Christmas tree next.

I found a color of duct tape that matched the book cover, but in the end, not much of the duct tape is visible.    When I stitched in the 3 signatures, I hid the stitching on the inside of the book instead of stitching into the spine. The center of each signature, I made a pocket to hide the stitching knots.     I left space between the signatures for when the book was being used it had space to expand.
