HBD to mom :)

Last year I made this notebook for my mom. It is of the provo temple at an angle you can see the reflection pool, (my mom and dad were married in that temple August 5th 1988). We had just gotten back from Hawaii when I made it, so I was on an "Ohana" kick. The back says "families are forever" in Hawaii lingo :

Welllllll she used up all her pages in this one, and wanted a new one. I wanted to try a new technique with making gumwrappers look like flowers, and I had some fun making this one for her birthday: 

Here's the front:

And the back (This is probably my favorite back I've ever done!)

I am ESPECIALLY excited about the veil. I didn't want it to be as bright as the silver gumwrapper, so I peeled a wrapper, and used the paper instead of the tin to make the veil! I might have to start doing that more often :)
