I saw them on Alice and Camilla. Then I made some of the lotus flower books which Linda from Blue Eyed Girl blogged about recently.
The first three books were made with commercial papers. I wanted to experiment to make sure I got things right. Good job as I forgot to paste in the ribbon for the first one.
Then I have used various oddments of modern and vintage fabric with lace to make up this larger book. It measures 6.5 x 6.5 inches and has a heart appliqued to the cover. I have used cream coloured cartridge paper with gold treasures gold applied to the edges for the pages. Making it heart 24. Almost half way through the year which I find a bit scary.
Wishing you all a good weekend.

Oh I'm so glad you decided to have a go. They are all gorgeous but I love the way you made the final one in your own style - it works beautifully!
Thanks for the link :-)
Stunning, aren't people generous! i can't get enough of treasure gold, which reminds me, my squares are calling now that I've finished my 50th postcard!
Hello again, I make little books and journals also. I love the one that you have made with the lace and the heart on it, so you. Where do you find your lace? Everything you make is so wonderful and vintage.
Thanks for your gifts, Cameron
I love your lotus books, particularly your fabric patchwork one. It makes you want to pick it up and investigate, it looks so tactile :)
The fabric book is stunning, what a lovely design.
I have made the little pockets before, they're great for putting ATC's' and ACEO's in.
Your lace and fabric covered book is so wonderful ... sigh! Also love your text pockets, but that cover on your book is to drool over ...
