i'm thinking using torn pages from a book to make embellishments of some sort - like book paper rosettes or something similar - or those wreaths made of rolled up book pages etc. 

[emmapaige]

My first thought was making flowers from book pages. 

Or maybe a Dr. Seuss title?

Or maybe using 50 Shades of Grey colored paper/cardstock/embelishments on a layout??? 

[ScrappyDistractions]

I've always thought of using pages from a book!  Yeah!

[citygirl22]

ooohh this one sounds like fun! I think the challenge will be creating embellies using papers from an old book 

[blfonty]

Using a Dr. Seuss book title as inspiration?

[Charleneanne]

or what was that thing a few years back where you altered a book?  Took out pages and hmmmmm, someone help me out here.  Altered books?  Does that ring a bell with anyone?

Guess I'm stealing a book from the work library!! TEE HEE!!!!!

Hmmm.. sounds like tearing pages out of books and using them somehow on a LO. This will be a hard one for me because as an avid reader and book collector (yes, the real ones with pages NOT the online kind) I don't think I could bring myself to desecrate a book with tearing pages. However, I love the look of book pages on lo's that's why I invested in a stamp that has words on it like a book to make faux book pages and also pp that has book pages on it. Perhaps I can find an old book in basement storage destined for goodwill

I won't part with any of mine - but I WILL part with one I buy at the second hand book store around the corner or lift at our office library!! 

QUESTION - Does it matter if it's paperback or hardbound - and what size?????

It can be any book, including a phone book as long as there is print on it.

[Krystle]

Hmmm, I'll have to go through my bookshelf to see if I have anything appropriate.

[Cards4Ever]

I already have a book that is missing pages. It was nes mess up printed book. I was 75% of the way done and then it went downhill after. It had the rest of the pages from the previous book in it.

Thanks Susan!!

Scrapping a quote from your favorite book using vintage book papers?

[LyndaKay]

I think you'll want us to use pages from an old book....I've seen this technique..looks really cool but I haven't tried it...yet


 

I agree with Brandy!

[mgehrke]

This is getting so interesting. I can't wait.

[ammielou]

I couldn't find clue #1, but I'm going with using pages as embellies!!
I did a Christmas card for my Brother.  

[cajenkins81]

oh!!!  What if the challenge is to use the print on a page to somehow transfer it ONTO the layout somehow?!? I know I've seen tutorials on making washi that looks like print by taping tape on print and lifting it off etc. And I think there's a way to transfer print onto a page without using the actual paper.  I think this could be it!? 

[jlparkmark]

Hm, I have seen people use pages from old dictionaries and incorporate them into their scrapbook pages. But also I have seen transfer techniques using old book pages, also phone books or dictionaries...very intriguing....

[1grandma]

Maybe use pages from a Disney book on a LO/project or to make an embellie.
