A Board Book for Madelyn

Happy Sunday my fellow bloggers! How are ya doin' today? I am still croppin' away and wanted to take a minute to share this board book with you. I designed this book using Inkscape and cut it out with my Cricut and the SCAL (Sure Cuts A Lot) software. This is another board book for one of my Mom's fellow teachers. They have a new baby in the family and her name is Madelyn. I love that name! So cute! I used the Cricut 'New Arrival' cartridge for the decoration on this book. Here it is...

I used a combo of ribbons and toile on the binding...

Here are the pages in order:





Is this not the cutest little baby ever?!!! I was crackin' up the whole time I was working on this page! Tee Hee!







I hope you will enjoy this one. If you want to see any of the pix bigger, you can click on them individually and they will come up bigger. Then just hit the back button to come back to this post.
Also, one of my fellow bloggers, and I cannot remember the name (I am horrible with names you guys!!!) asked me a question about the inside of the 'Spooky Board Book' that is posted below. She wanted to see the inside pages. Well, all I did was add a few photo mats to the inside. I did not really decorate it too much since it was so small. I would take pix for you, but this book is already in the mail on the way to a friend. So I cannot take pix of the inside. I will remember and do that next time. Sorry!! But thank you so much for asking and visiting my blog!!!
As always, thank ALL of you for stopping by! I hope you are enjoying a relaxing weekend! Take care and Happy Scrappin'!!!
