buttons and lacing

Another page, a gradual ''filling up'' of this little book with all things embroidery related. This page has been folded before being fastened with lacing and attached to the lower page with little buttons. My first thought when seeing these pages, when planning to work on the next one is not to view them as a finished surface which will take stitch, my first thought is how can I change this page, change the surface, can I fold it? can I cut it? can I rip it? what can I add to it besides hand stitch?

These little exercises keep my brain ticking over and I already have plans on how this can be taken forward with my ''artist book'' class.
