~Brag Book~

Inspired by Misty Mawn Altered Photo day Misty's altered photo challenge.
I am creating what's called a "Brag Book".

This is also inspired by the Somerset Workshop Magazine (August 2008 issue)

by artist Shona Cole.

Here are my three altered photos so far

In this little book I'll be bragging about Bijou

my cat.;-)))

I am not to sure how many pages I will make for

the book. I used 81/2 x 51/2 handmade paper

with a coat of gesso on both sides. Just love

working on this.

Will continue with progress on other posts.

Vanishing Point

Enjoyed playing with oranges.

Sealed with beeswax.

DAY 4

Applied some modgepodge on journal page and glued little bits of scraps I save in a box.

Then I used a layer of gel medium, let it dry.

Afterwards I used watersoluble color crayons to fill in the spaces.

When I was finish playing with background, I let it dry, then sketched my flowers with gesso.

When gesso was dried I painted with acrylics
