CHRISTMAS ALBUM


My friend Cathee contacted me a few weeks ago and asked if I would be interested in swapping a book once again, we did this a year of so ago (see that book here)
 The theme we picked is Holiday.
I love to up-cycle used (vintage and otherwise) greeting cards so this album is full of that.
I purchased just a few items at Michael's for the album, the rest is what I already have.
When I saw this clock ornament I just knew it belonged on my book.



I included an antique postcard here.



Some antique trim in an envelope pocket.



There is an image hiding in this antique photo folder.
I hand stamped strips of coffee stained muslin.



Two pockets created on this page full of tags, paper and fun things.


This girl is a cutout from a card, her winter wear is glittered but you can't see that very good.
I love to paint and glitter applique to use in my work.




Envelope with more tags.


A little snow girl dressed for the outdoors.


Snow baby.  She is also glittered.


Thanks for stopping by.
Michele
