Another Ruffled Bible


I've been "ruffling" again.  This time it is a Cambridge Bible published in 1893 and purchased at an auction last Spring.  I forgot I had it until the other day I was scrounging through some old books and there it was--the perfect size for "ruffling."  The pages were so old and brittle that I had to use a different technique from what I had used before. (See previous post HERE.)  I've put this in my Etsy shop if you are interested.  See the sidebar, click on the photo and it will take you to the listing page.  Though some pages are torn the words are all still there except in Psalms where a burn made a hole through some of the pages.  I guess someone was too close to the fireplace.
Matthew 22:29--"Jesus replied, 'You are in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God.' "
