Recently I started creating a Book of Days thanks Effy Wild who has now started a group in FB. This is the front cover of my book. I am sure it will not be the last for this one is almost full due to it being so small. I am sure the next will be better and hold alot more. The cover is coloured using alcohol ink and then stamped the edges are bronze and used metallic rub ons for this. The bird cage and bird if from a Tim Holtz die cut painted and inked to make it look old and the bird is inked and stamped over. My theme for the years book is Fly and Love. I will be adding some of the pages as I go along. This has started me on an unexpected journey of which I am sure I will discover others ideas and techniques, thanks to all the girls within the group.
Most of all it has been an enjoyable event to start 2012.
Happy Crafting all
