Cameo and Muslin Keepsake Book

My latest craft project is this covered book, made with inexpensive muslin, lace trim and an inexpensive resin cameo that I found on Ebay.

The inside has the same trim and a pocket on each side.

What to put in the pockets? Maybe a vintage French label printed on muslin and some glassine envelopes, also with antique ephemera.

JUNE TAG FOR ARLENE'S SWAP

Finally Finished and ready to mail! This is my tag for Arlene's Swap. She's at mybutterflykisses12 on YouTube. I made the flower and stick pin (with crystal dangle). I added a copy of lovely little child's song in French, called "Fais Dodo, Colas," from a vintage book I bought years ago in a thrift store. The words mean "go to sleep." The little girl is asking for quiet, and is a vintage photo that I placed on chipboard to give it dimension. I have a Fleur De Lis charm hanging from a pin on the ribbon. My camera doesn't pick up details!
