Board Book Swap

Hilda over on Lotstodo is hosting a board book swap and as I didn't have one, she kindly sent me one. The theme was open although a few topics were suggested. This is what I've done with it.

Front Cover

Inside pages

More inside pages

On this page I used one of the pre-cut shapes in the book

Last double set

Back cover

This is the book made up

Front and back made up
Can you guess what theme I chose? I tried really, really hard not to make it grungy!!!!

    This is beautiful, Sam and not in the least bit grungy. Love how each page is different but connects with all the other pages.
