Hard to photograph with the shiny gold card but hope you can see this ok. I have curved the pages so this can stand up on its own without the need to make a
stand. Seems to work ok.
Comments good or bad please?
Thanks.

Stunning. You have cut around the fluted edge amazingly neatly, must have taken you ages.

Lovely card, how long did it take to cut the pages out? They are perfectly cut. Well done

Thanks for all the lovely comments but if I'm honest - I wouldn't do one again with fluted edges on each page - I found it quite hard to do all the
embossing - hands kept cramping up from gripping the ball tool and it was constantly slipping out of the groove and into the next line.
Also quite hard to make sure you get the fluted edge embossed completely in the groove - some of the indentations ended up shorted than the others where I missed them - despite going over each part twice. Plus it was very fiddly to cut out - the embossing & cutting I did yesterday evening - lots of breaks to rest the hands! Methinks the next one will have straight edges! And no, I don't have any problems with the boards or my hands normally. But I like the end result so I guess it was worth it!

Absolutely Stunning Carol. I like the fact it stands unaided too. Hugs Rita xxx
