Stacey's project was a bind it all book covered with DSP of our choice inside there were pages so that we would be able to put samples of card stock and ribbon samples, this will be invaluable for matching colours, papers etc

This is the outside of the book.
Viola inside with new in colours.
The next project was a card, made by Sharon, using French Foliage stamp set, and En Francais background stamp.
We stamped the white card with the background stamp then stamped images from French Foliage stamp set with versamark, using white embossing powder embossed images. We then used four different distress inks to highlight the images. We added ribbon and sentiment.
The next project was a very cute box made by claudette using the top note die, we made a small box then topped it with the top note die cuts on the top and bottom, claudette made the small roses to match and the co- ordinating ribbon.
The next project was Annette's she gave us all the prototype for an envelope mini album with all the measurements, so that we could all reproduce them at out leisure, she was inspired by one she had seen on you tube.
Annette also gave us a complete kit so we could make a complete one, so we could keep the prototype as a sample, very usefull especially with Christmas comming up.
My project was a friendship album, it is like a flip album, I have done a small tutorial as I didn't have all the measurements to share with everyone.
