Friendship Books

Sherry's Book:

Kym's Book:

This year a few of my dearest friends have turned 40, including my dear hubby. I have a reputation for taking lots of pictures through the years. I always have my camera on my and everyone hates it when I make us pose for group shots but I have never regretted taking these pictures. I have gone through my albums several times through the years and used my pictures for many projects. Whether it be for a cd with pictures put to music, photo albums and yes, many times I have been the one in charge of doing the funeral picture boards for family members. Morbid I know, but that is life and when people want pictures, it is me they call.

So it is no surprise that I have lots of pictures with me and my friends. So I decided that when their 40th birthdays came around that I would do something with the pictures that I have taken through the years. I decided to try and make these little books and use my favorite papers, flowers ribbons and embellishments. I have so much fun making these! This past week I sent my good friend Sherry hers and I couldn't post pictures until I knew she had it in her possession. She moved to Wisconsin last year and I wish she still lived closer!

I also made an album for my dear friend Kym in January. They aren't perfect by any means but they are meant to be a keepsake of the many fond memories that we have shared through the years. Good friends are so hard to come by and who is more deserving of something special than the people that are there for you in good timses and in bad, through sickness and health, oh wait a minute, those were my wedding vows! Oops! I guess they apply to friendships as well! I hope these inspire you to do something special for your good friends as well. They are so fun to make!

(Sherry's album was made from a pre-made chip board album by Bo-Bunny, many of the papers are by Basic Grey)
