I made a little booklet/scrapbook for my grandson Austin for his upcoming birthday. This booklet is made with lots of really cute characters from the new Digital Delights builder series.
The booklet pages are made using the We R Memories Keeper Envelop Punch Board. One flap is glued down to form a pocket and the other side flap is used to insert into the next envelop. You can find a number of YouTube videos on this construction method.
The only thing I did different was to fold the booklet accordion style.
This is the back where I will put pictures of Austin with BIG trucks.
The inside of the booklet is not quite a story. I wrote a few words that he should be able to read to accompany each Digital Delights image.
The names of the characters perfectly fits my family. One son is Brian and of course my name is Nancy.
The only name I fudged was Tool Time Donald who turns out to be Uncle Evan!
Because these pages are made into envelopes I can fit little tags inside to hold more pictures.
This is going to make a great little gift for my grandson and was very easy to do with pre-colored images from Digital Delights.
