ABC book

I just finished a huge project that I have been working on all week. Of course if I would have started earlier it wouldn't have been so stressful. My goal this year is to make most of the presents that I give away and since Rylee's b-day is coming up next month I wanted to make her something. A quiet book came to mind so I begun making one for Church. I soon realized that my idea ( a really good one I might add) was going to take more time than I had - hopefully by Christmas (maybe some of you will get it as well). Then I thought an ABC book all about Rylee would be fun. Not only for her to look at but to document some of the things she likes right now. So I have been scrapping away. I just sent it all away to be bound and sent back with a hard cover. I think I may be cutting it close. I have never done any of my stuff in a hardback book so I am super excited.

Now the other kids want one of their own and are already thinking about what I should do for each of the letters in the alphabet for them.

Here are the pages of the book:

Way cute!! You're so creative. Couldn't help but post a comment on this one! Great job.

Might have to copy this idea as soon as I clean my craft room, so I can sit down at the table and actually do some crafting in there.

Its a beautiful book.
