Welcome to another 

Club Scrap Blog Hop.

This month the Kit is called London is Calling

Beautiful colors and a wonderful theme!

Hope you have seen  Marya's Blog with her beautiful

ideas en come to see what I have in strore for you.

If you loose your way you can always go to

Club Scrap's Blog and see all the participant.

I have been to England and London too,so i went tolook for

all those old pictures to scrap.......I just could not find where

i put them....you recognize this?! I found one and made this 

fun popup card with a 12x12 inch piece of paper cut in half.

This is the outside. The phonebooth is embossed in red.

Inside of the card with the picture on the

pop-up part of the card.

Backside of the card.

So what else to do with this kit?

Looking at the colors it made me think

the colors would be crad for a baby boy book.

Now isn't this a coincidence:

 I need one of those books soon,

 for my daughter is pregnant:

and swelling a lot for she is having twin boys!

The black image is cut out with my cricut

with the "New Arrival" cartidge and the sentiment

from the UM stamp is absolutely the greatest and

you can fill in any word(s) you want.

So for these two boys I have made a brag book.

Not two seperate ones,but one book for two.

Here is the finished book and it is ready to be filled

when they are born end June/ begin July.

These are the parts I started with:

back: 13"x 6,5"

spine: 1 1/4"x 6,5"

left and right parts: 6,5"x 6,6

"

Having made more books and watching the CS video

tutorials I remembered how to add different colors

of paper,especially when you do noth have the right

lenght of paper.

I used all the different colors inside and 

out to cover the bookboard.

Here is the complete cover for the book without

the embellishments.

Making holes in the spine to add the inside pages.

Here the finished left side of the book:

I used the Fizz and Cape Cod stencil to create

more depth to the paper.

The picture frames are embossed with clear

embossing powder and added with foam tape

tothe background, so I can add pictures ot the

babies. The numbers are the cut aparts.

On the right side I used a sentiment from

Create with TLC    

(baby sentiment was a freebie this week

and adapted for twins). 

The world stampand the other sentiment are

from Club Scraps Bookshelves kit.

I cut several 12x12 papers in half and folded them

to be the inside papers and used wax thread to 

sew the papers in the book.

On the outside I added some blue beads

for decoration.

I can't wait to fill the book with pictures!

For this I have to wait a little more,but at least

this project is done. I will share with you

more of the inside, when the pictures are there.

Now for more inpiration on what to do with the
