Completed flash card mini album...

This is definately a favourite.
Charlie keeps asking to look at it, in my eyes that's the highest stamp of approval.

Finished size is A6.
The front cover:
Was going with different title (whats in a boys pocket) but, cut a long story short, a mistake meant a change to this. 
Details: Word pocket: Chipboard covered C,Smaller font is die cut (QK Paige).
All other words stamped.
The pocket is cut from scrapbook paper.
Boy image: part of large stamp; stamped onto (Making Memories) patterned paper and cut out.

Inner pages:
Tried to do them as a story book but replacing key words with pictures.
Details: Circles have been stamped using inkpad, toilet tube & lids.
All items on page are from my Collage box.

Inner Pages (2):
Everytime I look at it I see something else.
Details: Left side is a photo of bulkier items and ones he wanted to keep/Right side is actual items.
These have all been in Charlies pocket at some point and been (well) played with on the way to school.
Charlie found a worm (called wormy) at school and was gutted when he passed, but was grateful that never found him in the pocket.
Charlie wrote the sentence and the worm has been stamped on pink patterned paper.

Thanks for looking :)
