I have had this book going around in my head for such a long time, I remember vividly the day I was shouting at Christopher in the garden and I actually turned and looked for my Mother because it was definitely her voice I heard... so no matter how hard we try, we all end up saying the same things... Dream Street papers Art nouveau and I love the way the plain chipboard letters for the cover turned out. I painted them with pebeo cerne relief and while still wet coated them with clear embossing powder. Let them dry and then heat embossed them and they ended with a really nice effect!
This is a little chipboard mini book made from chipboard shapes. Papers are K & Co McKenna.
Here is my Halloween mini book, used K & Co papers and 7Gypsies Halloween stickers. I made the hat, ghost, cat etc embellishments from chipboard.
If you want some more inspiration you have to check out the DT gallery at Zutters and see what the other girls have made... some lush stuff there!

Woohoooo! I love your Hallowe'en book - fabulous! Your 'Mother' one is beautiful too. :)
Thanks for the link to the bigger coffins. I tried the smaller one, but I found it very fiddly and had just about given up on it, so yes, thanks for the bigger one. I'll have a go at that when I get home tonight!
