sorting and purging

Posted on March 24, 2012 by thirdstoryies
I might be a bit of a clearing house over the weekend on the blog.  Doing a bit of tidying up and finding some long lost treasures.
These were pages of two books that E and I made for her cousins in 2008.  Time sure does fly.  I was newly pregnant with F at the time, and no one outside of M and I knew.  Now she’s one big giant ball of toddler, and I want to make her some of her own books like this.  The ideas are turning.
These were all paper collages, and the letter pages were done by E, while I made the covers for each book.  We published them in paperback using Blurb.  They were lots of fun.  Here’s the first:

Got a favorite?  I like the ruler.  And the neck!

    I like the ruler as well. The Rain/Rainbow together is well done, and the yogurt with the little spoon.

    And I’m not sure what a pinecone party is, but I’m amused by the combination.
