ONCE UPON A TIME ...

... A LITTLE PRINCE WAS BORN

This little mini book is dedicated to my son ... my little prince.

The book has been in the works for well over a year now 
but I finally finished it this morning.

For those who know me, I am NOT computer saavy
in any way.  But through trial and error, I have managed
to teach myself how to scan photos, 
where to find them once they are scanned and
how to edit them for use in this mini book.


The paper pack that I began with was 
'Chic Bebe Boy' by Teresa Collins.

Each page started as a piece of black chipboard and
covered with various D/P's, found in the pack.

The pages are all different lengths and bound using 
my Cinch machine and Zutter coils.

The photos were printed in black and white
to tie into the colour theme of the paper.











One of the best things in creating this book, 
was the flood of memories as I went through
the photos of my little prince.

Thanks for stopping by.
