    Hi
    i would love to make a card which looks like an open book with the pages which look slightly raised from the card.
    Does anyone know what I mean & where I can get a template from?

    thank you

    Hi there, welcome to the thread! What you are thinking of is called a bookatrix card, some of the ladies on this thread make them so I'm sure they'll be able to point you in the right direction, I've never made one myself as I'm not quite brave enough yet lol :)

    Morning everyone

    I wondered if this would be ok to enter in the challenge??

    I used acetate at the front of the aperture, and put the fish behind, so it's meant to resemble a fish tank! lol

    I've also started a blog too, which can be found here:

    Hope it's ok.
