Handmade Book

I have recently started making books. I own a Cinch bookbinding tool that I won in a raffle for Habitat for Humanity, and I love it. Here is a book I made for a good friend who loves tigers:

 Cover.
 Inside front.
 Inside back.
 Back.
I used chipboard for both covers, with regular scrapbook paper glued over it with acid free, archival safe adhesive. I work in a scrapbook store, so it was really easy to get the materials for this project. The pages are just regular 20# copy paper.
