It will be a gift for a very strong and special woman. It's a lot of work, but it's great fun.
I will give my very best. Will finish it tomorrow and show it, as soon as the gift has arrived.
When you are doing collages, you can find this:
hidden poetry in a book. This is by Barbara Starrett (it's half German, half English).
I love such finds.
And new material was coming today.
A ledger from 1929.
Great stuff! very helpful for making collages.
This is a book from 1882 about the spanish language.
Look at these pages! What a beauty!
Love this date stamp too, the nice words "Rec'd" and "Ans'd"...
Love love the collage, now where do you find books and things like that?
ReplyDeleteI am really enjoying your mini books and your attitude these past few posts. I think I have to go make a mini book myself!!
ReplyDeleteIt looks so inviting.... very very inspiring :)
ReplyDeleteSo fun and beautiful at the same time. Don't you just love paper? I'm cutting up books right now myself and find this so relaxing and enjoyable. *smiles* Norma
ReplyDeletep.s. looking forward to seeing the final result of your creative efforts.
You have great paper--had to laugh at the cutouts you made for poetry-finding. I do the same, just way more messy! Great start on the mini-book. I bet it will be lovely.
