Vintage Floral

Friday, I made a few more paper projects. I bought this journal at Target a few months back and I have wanted to cover it since then. Right now I seem to be in a vintage floral phase. So, I am going to go with it for a little while longer.



This is a little telephone/address book. I wanted a small telephone book to keep in my car. Calling 411 from your cell phone can be costly. I may see if they have any more, it was very easy to do.


I am not that happy with the quality of these pictures, I took them late at night. Still learning things about my camera.

I really like you books. I know what you mead about still learning to use you camera. I'm still trying to learn. I think I might have a disability in that area. You are doing great.

Denise, are you using botanical prints from a book to get the images of the roses? I have a hard time cutting up real books. I've bought quite a few at the thrift store for that purpose but wind up unable to actually cut them! haha

I am using the prints from a book I bought at Barnes and Noble. I watched it, until it was on clearance. I bought it thinking I would frame a few prints. But so far I have only cut the pages into pieces. The flowers are too pretty and should be seen....just get in there and cut, cut ,cut. I have felt bad about destroying the book but I also like what I am making.
