As promised, here is the Winter coptic book that I am currently giving away over on my instagram - @paigetaylorevans!
This book is very similar to the Christmas coptic book I made a few days ago.
It is 4x6" and the covers are made from painted wood. First I painted the boards white then I die cut the freebie snowflake cut file from Hip Kit Club and used it as a mask with light blue paint. It's definitely not perfect, but I tried to make it all look intentional with some sanding here and there.
I used pink thread to sew the binding and once again drilled three sets of three holes.
I tied buttons, sequins a couple of tassels, a pearl, jewels, shaped paper clips, tiny jingle bells, puffy stickers, and wood veneer pieces into the binding. Lots and lots of texture!
The inside papers are a mix of mostly Snow & Cocoa by Crate Paper, Juniper Berry by BasicGrey, Tis the Season by Elle's Studio, Yuletide by Pink Paislee, and a few random papers from past Christmas collections.
The book lies completely flat so it's great for journaling and scrapbooking!
I'm loving all the bright colors and pastels! This one will be hard to part with, ahh!

ReplyDeleteThanks for showing the pic of the book lying flat. I've got so much paper lying around that I am thinking of doing this for my son's school books for next year. Let's see if I actually get inspired.
