With Treasured Traditions, I get to BE creative for me and others. I enjoy being able to take "old" and make it new. So in this spirit, I crafted some super cute "pockets" from authentic, genuine sheet music. Keep in mind that the sheet music was very "loved" and shows all the age and use (rips, tears, handwriting, and even "lipstick" on one page). One of my personal "rules" is to not cut, alter, or otherwise "use" pristine paper (sheet music, books, maps, etc.). It's okay though when the paper is seriously "loved".
I have a stack of old atlases, dictionaries, and cookbooks just waiting for me to give it a second life. Can't wait to bring together old ephemera and give it a special twist. All ideas are welcome as inspiration! Happy Valentine's Day to you!
