Angel Miniature Metal Book

I designed this tiny metal four page book for Alpha Stamps.  I think this is the smallest book I’ve ever made.  You can see in the picture below that the book is slightly larger than a quarter.
The book is made up of a square metal washer on the front and back and two copper stamping blanks in the middle.  I used Metal Patinas (Verdigris, Jade and Antique Copper) to color the square washers.
The four pages are hinged together.  I attached the hinges using E6000 glue.
The textured bits around the edges of the pictures is melted embossing powder.
This is the back of the book.

Amazing!!! How you see to make something so detailed that is so small is a gift.

Wow, I doubt my fingers could work on something so small, I also doubt I could even see it. Wonderful.

Love the little book. I have ordered the hinges and the square washers, but I am curious as to how you secured the pages. Are you ( I hope) going to do a tut on the lovely item?
