This is the title of my newest fabric book. I have been working on this one for a bit. Hours go into making these kinds of books, but the joy that comes from the finished piece, is so worth the time.
I have incorporated a number of vintage laces, vintage trims, vintage fabrics, commercial fabrics, vintage buttons, vintage papers, acrylics, inks, pencils, images and words to make up this book.
30 pages of coffee stained paper was incorporated and if you count the backsides that would make 60 pages.
This could be used to journal, scrapbook, sketch, or display it as a piece of art itself.
I have listed this in my etsy.
GORGEOUS! Love it! Great texture and softness all at the same time. So many wonderful layers to just dive into. Hugs!

This is really amazing and beautiful. How would one journal on these types of pages?

OH my goodnes, dear Nellie- this is fabolous.
Every page you show, is sooo beautiful,-and so wonderfully pieceful. I love those white and low colour pages, and you filled them with gorgeous pieces of laces and fabric.
A dream to see, dear friend.
