Anyway it is quite a bit bigger than a real matchbook. The pages were just the right height for the ATC size frames on my new collage sheet but it was too wide…. being the butcher that I am, I got out my xacto knife and cut it a little narrower. Thank goodness she had left the staples in from the edge just enough. I am still getting this ageing thing down so I tried a bit of everything …lol.
I started by stippling the entire thing, then I drizzled ink on it. It still did not look to old so I took the sandpaper to it and roughed it up with the edge of a serrated knife. Better but not quite so next I used some gray, brown and black chalk. Once I had that done I cut the little frames out and placed an acetate window in each. Then came the fun stuff, I added cut out collage images, stamped and embellished to my hearts content :))

but how did you make me click that page and take me to different page
that was clever too!
Your album is quite an inspiration piece...now, if I only had those frames!!
Inka, This is awesome. You have to bring it to the next meeting. I'd love to see it in person

The pages of your book are awesome, Inka. A variety of themes for each page that are all coordinated. JUST GORGEOUS.
