I've had my eye on this book for some time now and I finally got to bring it home. It's a bank General Ledger, dating back to 1957, it is such a great size, 8 inches wide by 18 inches tall, with numbered pages and writing on virtually every page (nothing personal), and the heading are just beautifully lettered. I'm going to use it as a journal, but am going to make sure the original shows through in places as it would be a crime not to.
Having got it home though I have loads of cards that need doing before I can play, my niece is 21 next week, my BFF is 40 the week after and the week after that my ES is 18. . . .OMG, and I havent done anything for any of them yet.
So here are some pictures of my new love . . .
Can't wait to get painty with it, have a great weekend everyone, I'm off to make a 21st card.

what a great find, but dont be tempted to do too much with it. I usually scan some pages of something like this so I can use it for cards etc. without spoiling the original. have fun

Looks fab! Want to see your first page, chop chop LOL
You're right, I am well jel! Where did u get it from? I NEED to know! Have to say though, I don't really agree with fairy thoughts above ... what it needs is a few layers of paint, inks, stamps and images LOL! So, have you completed any pages yet? Have you? Come on, we need to see!
I'm with Kate, get it slapped with paint and ink and enjoy xx
