More mini books for Paper Saturdays

Hi you all! It's still very cold over here, hope it is warmer where you are!
Today is Paper Saturday at Manon's blog, and I am sharing 2 more little books I made. Each is made from a single sheet of 12x12" paper, and folded and cut a bit to bring it into book form. The spotty paper is from Graphics45, the other one from 7 Gypsies. The first one has been decorated with a spirit doll, and for the second one I used a wooden embellishment from crafty Emblies, which has been polished with Inka gold in copper. The covers have been varnished to make them more durable.






Have a good weekend, take care, and thanks a lot for coming by!

  3. Wunderschöne kleine Büchlein hast du da gemacht! Sie gefallen mir beide, aber da ich ein großer Fan deiner üppigen Spiritdolls bin, würde ich dieses Büchlein favorisieren.

  6. Two very desirable little books - who would not be happy to own those! I like both of them, but the one with the flower on the cover is my favourite. Your colours are beautiful.

  10. Really nice - some of your pages remind me of old Southwest rock paintings. I have always like the color red and once again I see your very special spirit lady.
