Blueberry Farewell Booklet

Hi!

LOL, I nearly typed 'Welcome to this week's Colour Creations...' before I remembered that we are finished. I hope you were inspired by our posts each week. I will try to continue to post on Tuesday evenings, as it's a good habit!

Tonight's card uses the new Noble Peacock Specialty DSP. Each of the sheets are heavy weight and have foil accents. The sheet I used is the Blueberry Bushel pattern, and I love that the design looks a bit like a stylised peacock tail.

I paired the Noble Peacock SDSP with some Black Foil cardstock, with some Silver Foil die cuts. The sentiment from Flourishing Phrases is very 'punny' for a musical themed card, don't you think?

When is a card not a card? When it becomes a booklet! This card was made for the members of the band I play in to sign so that we could farewell one of our musicians. Due to poor health, he's unable to continue playing. There's over 40 people in the band, so I needed to make enough pages to allow everyone room to write a message. I also added some ribbon as a belly band so that the booklet can be tied closed. I find that a card like this is preferable to a super sized card, as they are much easier for the recipient to store, and is therefore less likely to be thrown out!

Bye for now,

Tina
