I chose to make a book card for a friend's birthday.
Tutorial see PDF from Anita !
The base of my book is brown cardstock and all the other papers are recycled real wallpaper .
I paper pierced all the edges and sewed by hand with brown thread.
I used also one of the fancy tags from Spellbinders, cut in half on the backside.
The image on the front is from Impression Obsession, cut into 9 squares.
Decoration on the inside:
I punched a border on a piece of brown paper and made a pocket for my tag with personal message.
On the right side I added Sisal fibers and a real, little bottle of liquor from his favorite store in Bayern, Germany.

Fantastic work! The stitching and the bindings look fabulous, and the tag in the inside cover is a great idea. I found them to be a great way of presenting a small gift. I bet your friend will be amazed at this.
