Hello my friend !
I love the word embellish when it comes to crafting-
to me it means- make it better, make it your own.
Being able to personalize a gift, or making it
one of a kind is special.
I have shared many times about
my Used Bookstore in my local Library.
I find all sorts of goodies there.
Yesterday I found this new journal.
Beautiful silver filigree design on the cover.
The pages are lined.
I added a few 'feathers' cut from an old dictionary.
they can be used as bookmarks.
I purchased these 3-D puffy stickers at the DOLLAR TREE.
I separated all the pieces.
The stickers can be cut easily with scissors.
I wanted to make a frame for the cover.
This is the layout for the stickers.
I helped clean out a house a few years ago and none of the family
wanted their old family pictures.
I went through and decided to keep most of them.
I couldn't bear to throw them away-
Some of the pictures were over 100 years old.
I used one of the pictures here-
I used glue to hold the stickers in place.
She looks lovely in her Victorian frame!
With a real metal magnetic closure.
The pages have a silver scroll design on the edges.
Now the journal is unique and one of a kind!
Thank you for stopping by!
It's great to have you here.
I hope you have a wonderful week.
