Not a novel, but a finished book

Part of this entry will be redundant as I just showed you a few pages of the ABC book for my grandson a few days ago. Here are all of the pages in order, beginning with the cover.

I used images from the internet and family photos printed in a Word document because I found it easier to play with the sizing that way. The labels were also a Word document. I used my Sizzix die cutter, paper punches, colored pencils, markers, glitter glue, stickers and embellishments. It still doesn't look like I've made a dent in my stash.

The payoff came this afternoon when Grandpa and I sat down with Colton and this book for the first time. He was fascinated. He had a big smile on his face. When Grandpa asked him where Bob the Builder was, he pointed at him. This went on with other characters and items on subsequent pages.

 

I am done playing with paper for a day or two. My knitting is looking neglected.
