Button-faced Girls



After reading Sharon's blog http://myvintagestudio.blogspot.com/I was reminded of these vintage cards from some family treasures--Ink drawings with water color on card stock.
The face is a two-hole ivory button.
This one has several pages held together with ribbon.
Reminds me of the altered books I have seen recently.

Here is one made into a 1913 calendar.
Will head to my crafting table and see how this idea transforms into a 2009 creation.
