Club Scrap JUNE technique challenge

You might have noticed,I am lying low on my 

Club Scrap

entries and participations. True, I was on vacation,so

I had tomiss out sharing my projects with The Blues May kit.

So what's with June? Well my pizza boxs with the

June National Parks box has not arrived yet.

But for the Technique challenge I can use any paper

I like and the tchnique chosen by Anne Marie Healy

is: THE MAZE BOOK.

It is constructing a little booklet out of

a 12x12 inch page.

You will find her wonderful books and instruction video's

on the Club Scrap Blog here:

I love these little books.

But for what I had in mind,

it was just too small.I needed something bigger

and I came up with this larger version,also

out of a 12x12 inch page.

Here is the template:

You see the pages of this booklet are 3 x 6  inch

and you fold zig zag and you booklet lookslike this:

In the middle of the booklet you get a kind of pocket.

I closedit in the back with a piece of musical washi tape,

for the papers that i use foor this booklet are 

all from the May kit The Blues.

This booklet is about my eldest DD, who is 

expecting twins and she is sending the family

wonderful pictures of her growing belly.

I want to put them together in this booklet.

In the middle part op the book there will be a pocket

where i will add a photo of the babies when the are born.

I folded the top corner over and 

the rest of the pocket is closed with the

musical washi tape that i also used for the back.

The tag inside is cut in the corners with a punch

and i constructed a handle with the saddle

punch from Stampin'Up!.

As I wanted this to be a sturdy book, I made some

covers with bookboard.

The bookboard is slightly larger than the book will be.

Here you see the size I used. And the paper to cover the 

board is 1/2 inch on ech side larger than the board.

After gluing the papers around the bord, adding a ribbon

for closing the book and gluing the covers to the pages

it looks like this.

Today I decorated the cover,but I need some more

time for the inside, which I will share with you

when they are done.

Hope you will try your maze book and link it to 

the Club Scrap Blog, so you can win an awsome prize.

Have a creative day!
