When I browse the book sections in thrift shops I am immediately drawn to books like these:
Little books that were previously loved.
Ah! I can see Lara loved it book so much she changed the title.
So I rip the little book apart in order to give it a new life.
I grab some paper bags (I love my brown bag stationery section), trace A2 size envelopes. From the book pages I cut liners and punch circles for pretty stickers.
I use some glue to put everything together.
I love the end result...charming, cheerful and cute stationery. Now waiting patiently in my shop for a new owner that will love it as much as the previous owner did!
I've always loved your paper crafts -- this is such a wonderful way to give an old book new life!
