Wise Words

The word book that was on my desk yesterday is something I've made using lots of bits and bobs from the Funky Hand Dreams Come True (aka DCT) CD.

After putting off making one for ages I've done a couple in the last few weeks.  This time I've gone with an idea I used quite a while ago for a book of favourite quotations, the little owl in the DCT digi stamps set gave me the idea for the title, and I've converted him to a Robo image to add to the front of the book.  All the papers are from the Blue Magic set on the DCT disc.

Lots of photos so I'll leave them smaller than usual and you can click for a bigger view if you wish.  I've converted several of the digi-stamp images from the CD into templates for cutting on my Craft Robo, they work brilliantly for this, and as I'm rubbish at colouring it makes a great option for me!

I really enjoyed making this book.  I keep word doc files of quotes that I like, so that they are easy to find when I need one.  Making books of quotations is a great reminder of the wise words that I've found and stored away - it's which ones to leave out that's the tricky part.  So maybe there'll be a volume 2 along later!
