EPROM - Challenge #6

The Challenge for Eyelets, Ribbon, Paper - Oh My! Blog Group was to create a project using a movie as your inspiration.  Debbie has really raised the bar with this one.  Check out her blog Paper Maven Projects; she made a beautiful scrapbook page using Marley & Me as her inspiration.

A teacher at my school is retiring and I was asked to put a Memory Book together.  Mrs. Wilkes loves musicals.  Lucky for me Hello Dolly was made into a movie.  I remember the lavish costumes and the fancy hats.  The hats were actually my inspiration - they were adorned with lots of lace, ribbon, flowers, bows, and feathers.  I didn't have any plumes, so I made a charm.  This is the cover of the book.  Once the other teachers give me their pages, I will bind it with the Bind-it-All (and add more lace and ribbon to the wire binding).  Thanks for looking!
