For this weeks AALL & Create project I have made a mini book cover. I might still put some signatures in...
Here's how:
First I coloured 2 pieces of watercolour paper with Distress Oxide inks. I dunked and dried until I was happy. I used Mustard Seed, Peeled Paint, Twisted Citron and Broken China. I then used this stencil to 'stamp' on both pieces using the same inks.
Next I stamped the background a little.
I then stamped part of the big flower on the front cover and another flower from this set in the back cover. I also added the word 'beautiful' which is from a sentiment from this set.
I used Inktense pencils to colour everything. I like the look of it but still not sure whether these pencils are my thing. I see Abs using them all the time so I thought I'd give them another go.
And here is the finished result. I put the book together and glued the covers on. The book is made with a die from Eileen Hull.
The back of the book.
I have used the following stamps:
#294 - Tile Pile by Autour the Mwa
#265 - Blooming Poppies by Olga Heldwein
Stencil:
#78 - Cloister Grillle by Olga Heldwein
