Andy

I think baby books might be my favorite albums to make so far! Andy was made for a friend expecting a little baby boy.
The album is covered in a flannel baby blanket (stripes by Carters and animal print by tiddliwinks) chosen to match her animal nursery theme.
At first, I had a difficult time with the flannel texture on an album and then decided to run with the blanket idea rather than fight it.
(why do I always do this? Letting loose of set ideas and
just playing always turns out better!)
Incorporating felt, buttons, satin ribbon, and a little blanket stitching did the trick......and did I mention it was soooo much fun!!!?
Congratulations Brian and Tiffany!!
