Page 1 - Keeping with Kathi's theme of using an old pattern for the background I did the same on this page, then glazed over it and added some paper and bits. The masthead from "The Saturday Evening Post" is from the month and year Kathi was born, I altered the date to the 18th. Great find at the resale shop in Wisconsin.
Page 2 - Painted and glazed this page with red and yellow. Made pockets by folding the pages and attached them with brads, added a little paper for accent. Found the old pin at the resale shop in Wisconsin, cut a little bit of a nitch and glued the pin into it. Used the "ruler" from the package that the old pattern was in.
I love tags, made three tags for the pockets.
Page 2 with tags - Detail of the tags - just fun!!!! One tag has dictionary definition of "Vintage", one is a picture of birds, and one is a collage of paper, brad, and ink.
Thanks again to all of you for playing altered books with me.

OMG! Jody! Kathi will LOVE these pages!!! I have to say, I am totally intimidated to do anything to Denise's book! I MUST get going on it!
Jody ... So glad you got us on this trail of making an altered book..it and love your new pages too!
I love the way these look! The layers add so much depth & interest, more to see and fondle, lol. I'm still on the lookout for a good 'vintage' item....
OT: I'm so glad I went back to re-read my post before I hit "publish"! My fingers had moved over one key and I was typing in code, too much coffee, lol.
