I had wanted to stitch the big pocket on this page, but I think the sewing process was too rough on the vellum. I could have much more easily just have glued the seams! But, what I ended up doing was using a paper piercing tool to make dots all along the edge and then wove red metallic craft wire up and down the holes to make it stay on.
The title at the top of the pocket was printed onto acid-/lignin-free cardstock and then mounted on the vellum paper. The Chinese and English translation of the word "souvenir" is printed on another. All items in the lower right were made by dry embossing with a light table and stylus. |
