In a few days our niece is going to visit New York, London, Paris and then has a 2 year Visa to stay in England...
This is the card I've made her.
Even though she currently lives in Auckland and I don't see her that often, I will miss her. We have been close ever since I met her Uncle Craig
and then married him
and I've seen her grow through the years with pride when she got into NASDA in Christchurch (made this quilt to go with her)
and turned 21
and now she's flying away with this in her suitcase
Didn't have time to make it entirely by hand like I did with the Paris Journal so I started with this base
and turned it into a place for her to keep some memories of her travels.
The cover was easily painted and embellished - I would definitely buy this journal to use as a base again.
This is a selection of pages - I had a lot of fun making sure she never faces a blank white page
using papers, images and sprays
ribbons and tape
serviettes and sheet music
and lots of tags so she can capture photos and thoughts
and envelopes to collect memorabilia.
Bon Voyage Amanda xx
