and welcome to my blogpost for UmWow Studio, where I am sharing a little book with you. I have recently rediscovered my love of making little books and I couldn't resist to make one for today's post.
This little book was made out of 1 sheet of 12' x 12' paper and I glued some fabric on the outside to give it even more interest and also keep it together.
Here's what I did to the chipboard:
I started with 2 layers of gesso.
Next I heat embossed the pod-bit of the chipboard.
Next I am used a Pitt Big Brush Marker by Faber Castell to colour the top and the stem.
I added some white details too.
And here is the finished booklet:
I used an Um Wow Studio stencil and some modelling paste for the front of the book. When the paste was still wet I added som embossing powder and then heated it...
I have used this Chipboard:
It is called Poppy Pod Skellie and you will find it HERE.
I also used this stencil :
This is called Wheat Stencil and you will find it HERE.
Thank you for stopping by today !
Love your booklet Corrie, the chipboard adds the perfect dimension and the fabric gives a wonderful tactile feel. Love this. Tracy x
