Yesterday my hubby and I celebrated 22 years of marriage! I made him a book using the Stampin' Up! On Board Book Basics small chipboard pages (pg 179). I covered them with a variety of Desgner Papers and Simply Scrappin' Kit pieces. Of course I used my Bind It All to bind the pages together (my favorite "toy"). Enjoy the trip down memory lane...

a bit of trivia... the photo below, right, was taken the day after the 1998 Stampin' Up! Convention in San Diego. That was our Stampin' Up! 10 year anniversary Convention!
What a wonderful gift to your hubby, Patty! What I want to know is, how on earth do you still look as young as you did 22 years ago??? What's your secret? :)

Hi Patty,
What a wonderful project! You still look AMAZING! Hope you had a wonderful anniversary. I'm going to be learning how to use the Bind-It-All machine pretty soon and I'm excited. I'm sure I'll love it.
Take care,
Lauren ;-)
