Tag book progress

Somewhere toward the beginning of the year, I joined a swap where we had to alter a double page spread in a chipboard book. About a million things have happened since then, on a personal level, on a work level and on an art level for me, so this swap has been moved down on the list of priorities a number of times. However, I'm all done now - what a relief!

Here is the page I did for Nikki's book. Her theme was colour, so I chose some colours I love but hardly ever work with. It wouldn't be me if I didn't add a little black and white somewhere!


I first added some texture stamping into gesso, then painted with Twinkling H2Os I think. As if it wouldn't be hard enough to photograph, I then added some gold Rub'n'Buff. The pennant stamps are Zettiologogy and the scroll stamp by Autumn Leaves. IRL, but barely detectable is another background stamp by Tim Holtz. Here's a close up:


Thanks for looking!
