The latest book I received is a large, shaped, masonite book. The owner chose whites, creams and denim as her colors.

On this page I added several vintage images, a piece of vintage measuring tape, lots of creamy and white buttons, a few black snaps and a flower made with circles of denim.

The focal point of this page is a vintage photo of two Victorian women in white "tea dresses." I made the ruffle with sewing pattern tissue, added more buttons, a silver scissors charm and another denim flower.
This has been sent off to the next person in line and I anticipate my next book after the
middle of the month.

My blog will be quiet for the next ten days. I am off to Vermont with my daughter, Kelly and her two little boys, to visit my mother. See you later!
