Gingersnap Creations #42~Spicy Supply~Lace/Fibers...

I have altered this old Sarabook that I had in my stash,forever.
It's for the Gingersnap Creations challenge,using lace & fibers.

I covered the book cover with Laura Ashley Love Song papers,(inside is gingham),all the lace & fibers are from my stash (HUGEEEE drawer full!!!).I sanded the edges of the paper,which is velvet flocked & then added an SU metal frame,the word"memories" is a very dodgy old rub on,that didn't work v well,but adds to the aged look,I think!!!

Thanx for looking :o)xxx

Great project, love how you used the lace for the accent. Isn't amazing what we have hanging around in our stashs. Can't wait to see more of your creations.
