Card size: 4"h x 6.5"w

Created: September 3, 2021

There was a free ZOOM session with Helen Heibert on Aug 31/21 for this rocking card "Books Rock" Fun...

On Staples Cream toned 110# cardstock cut out the structure. I used a different size to what Helen showed us. (11"h x 6."w) scored at .5" from the top, then 2.3" and 3.3", having the ground piece ending up being 4.8".

I dry embossed the Happy Birthday text using a Cuttlebug embossing folder and hitting the high points with a Distress Pad "Tumbled Glass".

My book structure was 4.3"across  the top width.

The pages were made from Arches Text wove geli printed with acrylic paint. Quotes written with a 2.4 Parallel pen and Sumi ink. Sewed to the card structure with 2ply waxed linen thread in a pamphlet binding.
