Hello crafty friends, I’m excited to be back with a brand new project for you, another of my envelope counting books!
Envelope books are quick and easy to make and they don’t require any measuring or cutting in the construction of the book pages.
Before we take a closer look at today’s project I just wanted to update you regarding my month long hiatus from crafting and posting and what has happened to the AWH Colour Creations Blog Hop.
To cut a long story short I was diagnosed with cancer just after Christmas, had surgery to remove the tumour and just this week received the all clear from my surgeon with no further treatment required at this stage. I’m so incredibly grateful and very happy to be finally back in my craft room again.
While I had treatment and I’m recovering, the AWH Colour Creations Blog Hop has been hosted by my friend Kate Morgan as an Instagram hop and I hope to rejoin it soon. I’m not sure ATM if it will remain as an Insta hop or not so for those of you not on Instagram I’ll also blog about my cards here. However, if you’d like to follow the AWH Colour Creations Blog Hop on Instagram, my Insta handle is whatcathymade and Kate’s Insta handle is craftwithkate.
Storybook Moments Envelope Counting Book
While I was taking a little break, Stampin’ Up! added some of their existing products as SALE-a-Bration items you can redeem for FREE with any $100 purchase. You can take a look at all of the new SALE-a-Bration items here.
I’ve used one of these new products, the Alphabet A La Mode dies, in my counting book. NOTE: you need to use the new SALE-a-Bration item number (168074) when claiming these dies as your FREE SALE-a-Bration reward.
Here are some close up images of each of the pages in my book.
I always make a box to safely store my counting books too.
This 18 minute video shows how I’ve used different elements from the Storybook Moments Suite collection in the counting book and explains how I design and plan each layout and make a box to fit.
To see the construction method I used to create the envelope counting book, take a look at this video I made when I made another of my envelope books.
I’ll be back as soon as I can with some more crafty inspiration for you all!
