This one was a small box with coated surface, I ripped the surface off the outside which left this lovely distressed effect, it was all painted with white emulsion and allowed to dry.
The front cover is ready to be decorated but I haven't decided on a fastener yet. there is a small flap that comes around from the back.
This page was made up of the side flaps, punched on the Cinch and laced together with black thread.
Tags were also added on a couple of the pages
the back flap was also laced with black thread.
Now to decide what goes inside.

Love this idea!
Fantastic Carol - I would never have thought of using old cardboard boxes like that. Don't forget to show us what you put inside your book.
Wow, what a wonderful thing to do. Love the stitching!
Love it! Wish I'd been half as inventive with my Zutter.
Love your son's new work, really inspiring, he certainly did inherit mum's talent.

What a great idea. I love the stitching.
