Secret Storage Book

I have always loved those books you see in old movies, where they open up to reveal a secret hiding place for cash or jewellery, or the murder weapon!! So, when I saw this book card, I knew I HAD to make one.


This is for our new challenge at CES, where Jenny has a recipe for you

1 image. 2 ribbon, lace or twine.  3DP's


This is surprisingly easy to make, thanks to the fabulous tutorial from Tina.
My 3 DP's are  Websters Pages, available from Crafty Emma's. 
They are so gorgeous, you just don't want to cover them up!



No prize for guessing what's going in my card - I think a few bars of emergency chocolate should fit nicely!!


My dressy Anya was coloured with Copics and paper- pieced, with some tiny pearls on her shoes.
Check out Crafty Emma's for pearls and gems in different sizes.




Don't forget to pop by the blogs of my fellow teamies,
