My mother in law asked me to put a guest book together for a retirement party for one of her friends at work.
She wanted the book to include the party invitation, pages for people to sign, page protectors for photos and a pocket for a photo CD.
Here's a look at what I came up with. The final dimetions of the book are 8.75" x 11.5".
Inside the front cover, I used gold Jenni Bowlin rub-ons for the "thank you."After the invite, I did cardstock cut in three different sizes. At first, I had all of the pages the same size, but it seemed to need a little more variety, so I trimmed some of the pages.
Next, came the page protectors. I trimmed 12 x 12 page protectors which were already prestitched to hold 4 x 6 photos.For the photo CD, I used an envelope as the base for the pocket.
The back cover.
I used my bind-it-all to put all of the pages together. I'm not sure why it took me so long to start using my bind-it-all, but I'm happy that it's finally getting some use. I love using it because it is able to bind a variety of custom products into one album while choosing the exact size album to fit my project.
Tomorrow I am heading off to CHA. I can't wait to see all of the new craft products in person. I'll be sure to share the highlights here!
This book is amazing! your MIL and her friend are sure going to be pleased. Love every single thing you did here...
