My first handmade book / Prima mea carte cusuta si copertata de mana

hello all,

Here's my first experiment with hand bookbinding...under the watchful eye of my good friend Paula...:) Thanks for teaching me :)


The covers are made of chipboard covered in gift wrap paper. The book contains 12 signatures sown together by hand.

As the idea was to make a cookbook, on the first page I have drawn a sketch of a countryside  kitchen inspired from some card making toppers I have.




The signatures are A5, and the cover is slightly larger.

This cookbook is a very special gift for my best friend  :) representing the beginning of her new healthy life! :)

Stea in cinci colturi / Christmas ornaments 2012 - five points star

Hello all, Christmas is getting closer and closer so I must hurry and make some new ornaments. A few days ago I found an interesting tutorial  here  and I tried it out. I made a five points 3D cardtok star, embellished with some quilled mistletoe and some golden paint. Since  this is the first time I make this ornament, I am submitting it to the Christmas ornaments contest from  Copilarim  (Postare inscrisa in concursul "Impodobim bradul"). This star is very easy to make so I am going to include it in one of my paper craft workshops from December. I hope the participants will like making it as much as I did...:)
