'Tis been lovely to be able to craft a bit of late. I haven't whipped up
bitty notebooks since Christmastide, so for a lovely
chum's
birthday last week, a handmade notebook entitled "Our stories of your story" materialized, featuring a vintage linen cover sewn onto recycled cardstock lining
with a hand-stamped title alongside a cheery fabric heart.
The inside front cover encases a bounteous bulk of graph paper pages
and a sewn mini calendar with her birthdate subtly highlighted adjacent to a cross cutout to symbolize the gift of another year of life granted by He who is the
giver of all good gifts.
Compiled upon the graph paper surfaces are our stories of her story (of how God has used her friendship with us for good),
finished off by a superimposed teeny manila envelope
with a salutation penciled within.
If only there were more hours in the day to allocate to
crafting. It'd be grand to resurrect the
shop!
