Wedding guest book




Whew! It took forever to make this because after 6 years I finally went back to work...but that is a different story. Anyway, my sister is getting married April 9th!! At first I volunteered to make the cake, but after flopping colossally with fondant, I asked if I could make her guest book instead. Luckily she said yes! So, this is the end result. Her colors are charcoal grey and celery green so I tried to incorporate them into it. I hope she likes it!! :)

New binding!


I wanted to do something different so I tried a new binding method which involves cutting slits in the front and back cover and putting ribbon or, in this case, vinyl strips through and sewing the book together with them in place. It was so fun to see the results, and I learned so much. I can't wait to make a few changes and have it work out better next time!
