Wedding Book ….. Something Old, Something New ….

I’ve shown you this idea about a year ago, but though the words are the same, the embellishments change, so I thought I would show you the one that I finished on Tuesday night.
Wedding Book Cover
And I won’t rabbit on …. I’ll let the pictures tell the story.
Wedding Book page 1
Something Old - Wedding Book
Something New - Wedding Book
Something Borrowed - Wedding Book
Something Blue - Wedding Book
And a silver sixpence for your shoe - wedding book
Bind It All Wedding Book - view of both sides
On the left hand pages of the book I make a pocket and add a couple of cards for the giver and bridesmaids etc. to write little messages.

The book is placed in a plain box (made using my box maker from e-bay)

But I like to embellish the top a little.

And this is a view of my desk as I was making the book, while watching “The Great British Bake Off”
