PHOTO ALBUM PAGES

Don't you just love it when something that doesn't work out for one project is perfect for another???
I had a few frenchy pictures that I had cut for something that didn't work out and it turned out they were the perfect size, shape and colour for inserts for some old photo album pages I had.
I framed up the pictures then embellished them a bit with some bias tape, and buckles I had on hand.
One of my boys pointed out to me that there are some rips in the pages, but I simply replied; "well, junkers like that sort of thing!"
Happy day!

    You know that I love these, since I bought the one on the left at the AA/JMS event in Minneapolis a few weeks back. It resides in my hallway now. I absolutely love it!
    Great idea with these, Janis.
