Pocket Page for Marie

The back ground is a Monet looking piece of fabric in pinks, blues, greens, and naturals,  upcycled from a jacket.  You can't see it in the scan but it also has some silvery embossing woven into the pattern.   The vintage lace I found at my favorite shopping place, the yard sale mall, lol.  It is a beautiful old piece, yellowed to a lovely patina with beautiful roses and scallops, a fine piece of lace.  The group tells me I have to have a pocket to put goodies in..??  I am liking adding some fibers to the things I make.  I have been so into paper for so long this is rather a new experience for me.  I will be glad to move on to some collages with this swap.  I keep trying to de-clutter my stashes and I find stuff that I think... ah hah! Marie supply! lol
This is the first pocket page I made.  The pocket is not very big.  I will use this in my folder somewhere too.  You can see the back ground fabric better here... so pretty.
