This year I've spent more time with my mother going to my doctors appointments and taking my 96 year old mother to wound care specialist, she has an ulcer on her leg where she had cancer. Specialist told me you usually get an ulcer where you get radiation. She is in lots of pain and has home health 3 times a week.
I try to keep her busy when I'm with her.
June 2nd and 3rd before I had major surgery June 13 we made books like this one. I've now had complication due to surgery and now spend a lot of my time in bed, doctors orders.
Now, lets get back to my booklet;
I took a few book making supplies, a book/box scoreboards die by Sizzix/Eileen Hull, a Thinlits die by Eileen Hull, some TH Bigz die cuts, tissue tape and cling stamps by Tim Holtz, a new scrapbook pad by Hobby Lobby, a bunch of cut-out stamped and watercolor images.
Mother has some older Sizzix red thick dies and Tim Holtz bigz dies and stamps that I used on this project as well. My mother made her own book using some of the dies I used. (I shared mothers book on Facebook.)
The front and back die cut covers were made with black mat board. Each page is made with two scrapbook pages and a heavy card stock inside. We needed lots of glue. Finished book: 5" x 6 1/2"
One of my Eileen Hull scoreboards xl dies is this book/box die;
