BIRTHDAY BOOK

A dear friend of mine asked me to make a birthday book for her "MUM" who was having her 80th birthday.
Betty's fave colors are pink and green and she also loves soft lace and ribbon..
I decorated the cover and the first double page and then the family filled the book by adding a photo and a handwritten message by each family member..
Betty absolutely loved it ...
I have entered this into CR84FN color challenge ... click HERE to see the amazing artwork .




thanks for looking..
have a great weekend ..ENJOY ..
LOVE AND HUGZ
