The Button Farm's Acryllic Mini-Book

It has taken me a bit, but I wanted to post pictures of The Button Farm's Mini-Book.  This mini-book is from a class we took at the CK Scrapbook Convention in Mesa, AZ in April.  We talked about the convention (if you've never been to one- I highly recommend it) in a recent post.  This cute book was a really fun class, moves fast and gave some good ideas how to use paper crafting collections by folks such as Basic Grey.  Here's a sample of what the finished product looks like.

One of the most charming parts of the kit was the specific detail that was designed into the final product.  You can see the layered flowers adhered over the sentiment on the front page.

Ribbon and sticker boarders were combined to create the decorative effect on this page.  Setting these boarders next to the scalloped edge of the acryllic page is especially charming.  The overlays are adhered over patterened paper to create a create place for journalling.
I hadn't yet finished the 1 inch loose leaf rings that hold the book together, but tying off bits of fibers and ribbon will finish the look.  The paper and embellishments are all Basic Grey's Marjolaine line.  If you are looking for a quick gift to make that provides a lovely style, please check out the Button Farm and their projects.
