I am so excited I made my first word book. I told my husband the first time I saw them gosh that is really a dumb idea I would never invest my time in something like that. Well don't say never. 8 hours later I have made one. Surely it does not really take 8 hours but being my first word book and my first real project with the Pazzle Inspiration it took a little time. But it was fun, relaxing and the end results an awesome book even if I do say so and an awesome day designing it. So now I can justify my paper stash because I really went through several sheets with this project because I double back it for strength and added effect. So Fun. Time for bed though. I will post tomorrow to share and have all you experts give me some constructive critisism. Would love to hear from those more experienced. TIA

Can I ask what is a word book, is it the same as a mini album?

Oh,ok, I love these. I haven't bought any yet, though. I was thinking of making my own, with chipboard and jump rings, has anyone made their own?

I did not do my from chipboard since I am not familiar with the settings on my Pazzle Inspiration yet. So I created my own books with true type font of my choice and the size of my choice. It is not quite as heavy since I only did two thickness of cardstock but I did bind it with the Zutter Bind It All and so it is very stable and I am comfortable with it. However once I get the setting for chipboard I will probably look back and wonder why I didn't invest my time and products better by using a chipboard book. I can cut everything from the chipboard to both from and back (mirror) for each page I just need to get the accurate settings so that I don't damage my Inspiration machine. I will post later today.
