BOOKS




A TINY BOOK OF LOVE

For this week’s tag I have made a tiny tag book.
The inside is made from one long strip of paintedwatercolour paper, folded concertina fashion to make the pages of my tiny book(it measures 8 x 7cm).
The cover is made from green felt embellished withribbon, lace, scraps of fabric, and rows of machine stitching and couchedthreads.
Continuing on my Daisy obsession of previous weeks,I have stitched on rows of daisy cord . The book is fastened with a loop of embroidery thread around a vintagedaisy button and made use of my daisy paper punch.
On the 4 pages inside the book I have printed a fewspecial phrases about love and life. (authors unknown).
To Love andBe Loved is
The GreatestJoy on earth.

Infinite Love is the only Truth
Everythingelse is Illusion.

You are aSpiritual Being
having aHuman Experience.

Somewherealong the line, we forgot
how Divineand Special we are.

I have cut out daisies on the printed inserts sothat the background colour shows through.
The tag is finished off with yellow thread andribbon, gold beads, a butterfly charm and a flower bead.
I’m glad I had a bit of a thing for daisies duringFebruary, but I’m pleased to see the new themes for March. I love Spring; it’s my favourite season.
Lots of love
Jane xx
