Like a very big card!
My inspiration for this comes from all the handmade notebooks and scrapbooks on the site - thanks!
I didn't know what to get my boyfriend for our 2 year anniversary so I made this!
I had a few ideas for some of the pages but most of them just came as I went along.
I can't seem to stay away from felt or sewing and it just seemed like a nicer front cover then paper.

Step 1Collect images.
-
Step 2Cut out a peice of felt as big as you want - cut it out bigger so you can trim it down if you need to rather then start over and waste felt.
-
Step 3Count how many pictures you have and cut out enough peices of paper the same size as the felt.
-
Step 4Arrange pictures and stick in. If you are bothered about the order of the pictures make sure you keep the paper folded in the way it will go onto the felt, like a book. It won't be in the right order if you stick stuff down onto the paper as individual bits of paper.
-
Step 5Draw, make collages, use patterned paper, card, cut up pictures, edit them on photoshop before hand anything! I just drew over stuff in ink.
-
Step 6Poke holes through each bit of paper along the spine. Do it on one peice and then place another peice behind so that the holes are in the right places.
-
Step 7Sew the paper onto the felt.
(When we went to the Tower of London, this American said 'I've got like a hundred pictures of this god damn bridge' my boyfriend found it hilarius and still likes to think he said birds cuz that would be funnier, apparently.)
-
Step 8Sew/stick anything you want on the cover and then take lots of pictures and put them on CO+K!
