To celebrate we get a few hours to spend alone together, a precious treasure as we get so few.
This is what I've made for my husband but we both get to enjoy the year-long gift. It took about 2 weeks to get the book made during nap time in the afternoons and a few hours on the weekend.
I made the book and used my Bind-it-all (first time using it and I've had it for over a year!) I made the tabbed pages out of card stock and covered the pages with patterned paper. Then I used Glimmer Mist and sprayed the pages to add some sparkle.
Each Page is labeled for one month, has quotes and notes and has a date planned and paid for. It was fun to make!
I'm only showing a few of the pages, he should get to have a few of the pages kept secret.
