ART JOURNAL COVER..


Hello everyone..

I have not written my title yet, normally that is the first thing I do, as I have no idea what to show you..I better look in my pictures and choose or we could just sit here and chat all night..


Okay, I got it..I covered my new Art Journal book..

















Nine pictures..and to think I started out from the very first glue down of papers and showed step by step then lost the lot somehow while importing them..gone.

So I just took a load of photos showing all that I stuck down, cut out, recycled,,splattered, stickers, and painted, found, stole..[ did I just say that] right down to the butterfly brooch in the middle..

A lot of letter die cutting and gluing together to make them really thick, the papers were so busy but even they nearly got lost in the process as I kept adding and adding....but I had loads of fun, took about three days I suppose, off and on.

Some of the stickers date back to 1999..lol..

So there go, hope you are all still well and safe..take care..and thank you so much for stopping by..

Luv CHRISSYxx

What a shame the step by step photos got lost, I wouldn’t know where to even begin with such a design. Lots of different materials and bits and bobs make this cover look extremely detailed and gorgeous.
