Good morning you all, it's Tuesday again - just in case you haven't noticed! I am glad I managed to write the title before the sun disappeared again, perhaps we will have a nice day! Yesterday I was out and about nearly all day, and I did not have much time or energy to do much when I got home. It took ages to get home from the Doc's as there was a giant traffic jam. At least I didn't have any chance of speeding through the tunnel and getting a ticket this time! I had to get some shopping, too, as my fridge was almost empty, and I was sooooooo hungry that I really had to restrain myself in the store so as not to rip open the packets on the spot. But I bought myself a ready made sandwich - a luxury I don't usually allow myself! and wolfed it down in the car on the way back.
So, all I have to share with you today is one of the little books I made on Saturday at my friend's place, and a card I made on Sunday for my neighbours' anniversary. The little book is a folder which I made following the same pattern from Lesley that I used last week.
The card has a special envelope, made to match, as it would not have fitted in a normal one.
I am looking forward to this evening as I am going to see the new Harry Potter film with a friend, who is also a Potter fan.
Have a nice day, take care, and thanks for visiting!
Love the vintage look of that sweet little book.

The card is stunning! Looks like it was custom made by a professional card maker. ... What am I saying ... IT WAS! .. and the tag book also looks like something a little different in shape etc. Very very nice. Hope the sun is still shining and the Potter film was a 10. take care, hugs, Donna
