This is a mini scrapbook (well, not so mini, see it opened up) ... for my Secret Lil Sis. I'm mailing it tomorrow, so if you see it, don't tell her.
Took Bazill olive colored paper and creamy caramel & layered the accordian style book.
Used some distressed card stock & cut triangles for each page w/other scraps for a change. I tried not to be matchy-match but kept in same color family.
Put a non-matching ribbon in similar colors tho glued to the inside cover to tie it closed.
Finished the front w/"Journey" sentiment stamped in black then distressed the edges, mounted on ruby red then the same green bazzill w/chocolate brown brads. Colored tree image in 2 brown ZIG markers then stamped, crumpled paper & distressed edges, mounted also on ruby then green bazill. Distressed the sentiment & image w/TimHold distress ink & bumped them up on dimensionals after distressing the green layer too.
This is going to be a hard one for me to put in the box, I like it so much. May have to make another one for me.
Hope Lil Sis likes it.
Thanks for looking.

You've done an awesome job with this, as I've said in my other comment on the pic with this project opened up. The papers are so yummy and I can see why it'll be hard to part with it! Your secret little sis will love it, I'm sure!
