Oh the 'treasures' that are rediscovered...

... when my studio gets a massive clean-up/clear-up....

Finding a place for everything and putting everything back in its place - very cathartic.. and while doing that (which took a quite a while!) I found rediscovered this little 'treasure':

Its a little book of music (10x14cm) - wonderfully aged around the edges - I think I bought it in Prague??  and the pages would be the perfect backgrounds for my stamps when making cards - which I have to do a lot in March - 2 x parents wedding anniversaries, 2 x sister-in-laws birthdays, Mum's birthday, 2 x Mothers' Day... & several friends' birthdays! thats a lot of cards to be made in 1 month (for me anyway lol)...

Sometimes I like to make cards in batches and here's a small batch that I made with the book pages and images from the latest JOFY stamp plates (& an old favourite): plates I've used are JOFY24, JM33 & JOFY12:





I LOVE how these turned out - stamping, using printed papers, JOFY Limited Edition Fresco Finish, & a bit of sewing... happy happy happy
