The cute crocheted  pram, ribbons and gems are all  from Meiflower Crafts. .The rest of the embellies  are ones I have had lying around for ages...The book was made using 6x6 card bases which I cut in half and tied back together using Meiflower crafts organza ribbon .The flowers are made using a punch and its a girl papers. The envelope on the last page was made using the we are memory keepers envelope punch board. I have left plenty of space for cute pics.

Girly money wallet

Hi all
I have been making wallets to put monetary gifts in ..I think the ones you buyfrom shops are a bit uninspiring. These are so easy to make and can hold gift cards or money [of the paper variety lol] I have used the absolutely stunning NEW First Edition papers from Trimcraft...First edition papers are such amazing quality with beautiful finishes  like embossing,glitter  and pearlised  that they are really my fave papers to use ,there are 3 new releases this week the other 2 are "its a girl " and "Its a boy" and they are equally as stunning ...I made a hand made rose using a flower punch and added stitching details and pockets on the inside. which I made using the spellbinders labels 1 dies
There are 2 slits also for adding your money/gift card.The sweet buttons are from Meiflower Crafts,.
I also made a male version which you can see below and how fab would that look if you put the guys initials on the front ...I will try that and blog the male version in full tomorrow
