averygoodun42Okay, I know a lot of you are crafters, and some of you deal with paper.
I have the only good copy of an old church directory so that I can scan the front cover to replace some destroyed photos. At some point today, the envelope it was being kept in was dropped on the wet tile floor (entrance) and wasn't noticed until the whole right corner of the book was soaked through. Now it's all wrinkly and horrible and... *sobs*
So far, no photos have bled, inside or out. The only visible damage is the wrinkling and some discoloration of the white inner pages. Although I feel horrible, I am not going to worry about the discoloration, but I do want to fix the wrinkling if at all possible.
Is it possible? I've separated the pages and put plastic wrap in-between each page to keep them from sticking together. I don't know what else to do.
The corner is still damp, btw.
Help. Please?
