Sneaky Peek Revealed

Hi all!

Do you remember that a couple of weeks ago I've gave you a sneaky peek at a project I was working on?!?


Well its finished. It took ages.


It has been a real labour of love.
I have always wanted to create a Word Book. I created a small one for Emily, my daughter's birthday. But I have never had the opportunity or inspiration to create a larger one. Until now!!!

This one is just GORJUSS, that's the word I used and I used the Gorjuss Girls and my Daughter as my Inspiration.
I'm not going to type much, I thought I'd just let you browse the photos!




CardStock: Chocolate Chip (Stampin Up), 2 shades of Pink from Papermill, scraps of Green for leaves

Papers: Sweet Always from Stampin Up

Ink: Chocolate Chip, from Stampin Up

Bound together using the Bind-it-all

Ribbon: Chocolate Chip Stitched Grosgrain from Stampin Up

Images: Gorjuss Girls, Coloured with my Promarkers, using predominately Pumpkin and Cinnamon, but others were used, such as Blossom

Sentiments: From free verses sites on Internet, copied and pasted into word, and edited.

I loved making this book! and I hope you have enjoyed looking at it too!
I'm going to enter it into this weeks Passion for Promarker Challenge!
Hugs Sarah B X
