Trash Book Alley

This is Trash Book Alley class that Kirsty Wiseman taught months ago at the retreat in Glous. I adored this class when I did it, but have never had a spare moment to actually finish it. Well the other night I decided I was going to do it, and now that it is finished I adore it. I love this so much, its made out stuff you would find around the house, cardboard, cd cases, cd sleeves, paper bags, etc. it is so touchy feely, and I can't put it down.

I decided to dedicate it to us a family, it has pics of all three of us taken over the years, the pics are some of my fav pics of us lot, some are silly, some are romantic, but all of them are special to me.

I want to thank Kirsty so much to teaching me such amazing skills. If any body wants to know how the book is done, can I suggest you contact kirsty and beg her nicely to teach you. :)
