I received a gift in the mail from my dad yesterday. He purchased an engraved brick to be installed at his churchs' Memory Garden, in memory of my deceased mom. It was installed recently, and He made a pencil "rubbing" of the brick, and took pictures of it, and sent them to all four of us sisters, along with a Christmas card, and a letter that touched me so much that I was in tears so bad I could hardly read it! I want to preserve the rubbing in some way with the pictures, but is pencil lead damaging to the pictures? Can it be laminated and still be ok? the rubbing is the size of a regular brick, and I have no idea what kind of paper it is on. I don't do everything in my scrapbooks acid free, but I think this is important to preserve. I was thinking of making a sort of collage, in a picture frame using my scrapbook supplies, and some other trinket things.
I would appreciate any advice! Thanks
