A Trio of Altered Composition Books







These three altered composition books have been made as orders for prayer journal/notebooks. The inside pockets hold removable prayer lists.

Birthday Shoes to Sooth the Soul!



Pink glitter paper provides the backdrop for these stilletos, the one on the left is raised with dimensional foam dots, as is the greeting.

Two takes on a theme here - one is quite pink and girly - my favorite!
