Here is my latest creation. I did this pretty quickly with the help of my brother-in-law Marty. He bound it for me, which brings me to a small vent. This was a Maya Road chipboard binder. It had a 3 ring binder in it and 8 chipboard pages. I wallpapered all the pages and used flat embellishments. After 7 hours of time and effort, I was proud of my little project. I put the pages in the binder and of course with my luck, they didn't close. I was pretty annoyed. Anyhoo, Aaron cut off the rings and Marty coil bound it for me. Thanks Marty.
This was a gift for my sister for her birthday consisting of my favorite recipes. Mostly recipes from my mother-in-law. It is so nice to have recipes handed down to me.
I am enjoying a wonderful weekend in Idaho with my family. I will post pictures tomorrow of our snowmobiling and sledding today. It is so nice to get out of the smog and busyness. I love the fresh air and quiet.

Your book is super cute!! I love it! And you know, I've had the same problem with the Maya Road albums. You go to all that work, and then the darn thing doesn't close all the way. It really drives me nuts...at least you were able to resolve the problem. I love the spiral binding, it looks great!
