Heritage Gate-fold Album & Computer Problems

Front cover of a heritage gate-fold album that I did at a class that Robin and I took this past summer.

This is the inside of the back cover.

This is what you see when you open the album. The pages are made from recycled beer coasters. The cover is made from book board and special book binding fabric. Each page contains stamping, vintage photos and embellishments. The class was instructed by Joni of Artful Illusions.

Our computer will be spending the night at the home of DH's golfing buddy/computer geek going through who knows what to fix it. The guys just went to play golf and I am supposed to be doing the back-ups and whatever. Hopefully I'll be back in few days on a computer that works like they are supposed to work.

I think your book is just wonderful! The extra details you added to the front and ribbon are gorgeous. Computers, can't live with them and can't live without them!
