 Hi there, I thought I would let
you see my latest Faux Book card I have made to celebrate my daughter's 30th birthday in April.

I made this with thick card and covered this first with patterned paper on both sides..



Spine showing the added detail..

 On the spine I reinforced it and then added some brads and raised up cardboard strips to give some interest.

Tissue

I used the top layer of this serviette to decorate.
The tissue is added and looks like crinkled
leather when dry.
