Today I would like to share a little project for Lessology .The challenge this month is all about books
Hello there friends! This month's challenge is all about books! Yep...incorporate a book in your project for LESSology Challenge #51: It's reading time! You can decorate a book or even make a book. It can be a mini-book too. Totally up to your interpretation. We look forward to seeing your creative ideas! :)
Remember, you can create any project you want as long as it includes ONE upcycled item. Please indicate what it is in your post as it may not be apparent.
I have made a little three fold book which I am going to send away to a lovely Pen Pal in Ireland
This is my cover which is tied up with an old piece of lace that was my Mum's
This is what you see when you open the first fold. The lovely lady with wings is a printable image from Pinterest and the image of the lady and man is a tag I made from 7 dots studio "Cold Country"range from Memory . I have used some old music paper on the tag, which you can't really see here. I have old lace on this page as well and the tag slides in behind a piece of old lace to hold it in place. As you can see I have made little pockets to hold bits and pieces.
and opened up completely. I found PL cards make good pockets as well . I found the tutorial for this little booklet on Janet Lanes Blog. It is super easy (which I love )
If you click on the link it will take you straight to the tutorial. If you are into pocket letters , this site also has lots of ideas for you.
Thank you for calling by , weekend is nearly over . I have my middle son home this weekend (the Gypsy Child) and so we are having a family lunch that Hubby has cooked :) before he heads back
Have a wonderful week
Love Peace and Happiness
