Convention Inspired Baptism

My nephew, Dean, is getting baptized today and this cute little keepsake book is part of his gift. At convention they showed some of the new Decor Elements which are coming in the fall and demoed a great book/box like this filled with a set of notecards to be given as a gift. The book can then be used later as a keepsake box. Please note you have to use the note sized cards as standard size cards were a little too big. The book was purchased at Hobby Lobby and the designer paper is from there at well. The "D" on the front started out as an On Board Simon uppercase D, but that was too small so this D is also from Hobby Lobby. The box is unfinished and the paper was cut to fit and Modge Podged in place. Next is a big wall "D" they can use for decoration in his room. Excuse my feet from that photo - ha!!
Finally a set of 8 thank you cards with envelopes and postage. The cards are made using Creamy Caramel, Close to Cocoa, DSP from Hobby Lobby and the Wild About You set to match the safari theme in his room. Hope they like them :) Have a great weekend. ~Heidi
