Let's hear it for the boys week #1

These next few weeks I have quite a lot of 'boy' occasions to make cards for. I bet my card draw isn't the only one lacking in suitable cards for men so I figured why not devote a week, {or at least 3 or 4 days worth of a week} to cards/gifts suitable for those funny bloke folk.

Today to share I've got a prezzie I've made for Dad for fathers day. I made him one as a Christmas gift a couple of Christmas's ago and he really liked it so he's got another one......
It's a minibook for music and lyrics. I made it from old denim jeans and stitched paper and other fabric strips on top then grunged it all up with paint and spritzed ink.

Because it's made of fabric it also folds up so it can be stuffed in a pocket, something I think that's much appreciated by the bloke folk since they don't tend to use handbags....
Next project to do - cards, one for a birthday on Sunday and another to go with this gift. Hmmm.....
