More pages I did in Kathy's book

Here are some more of the pages I made in Kathy's book. Again, her book is a bit wider than mine, but the shape is the same.

These are some of the first pages in the book. The background for both pages is my hmp. The right side has various washi and origami papers cut in strips, along with Mizuhiki cord at the lower right.

The left side is a pocket that I painted with several coats of heavy gesso, then several layers of red and yellow paint, mixed in with more gesso. I took a kid's flip-flop with a deep indentation and stamped into the wet gesso and paint. The image is packing tape transparency. I glued a metal star to the clipola which acts as a handle to open the pocket.

This shows the inside of the pocket. The technique is the same, but I used blue and gold paint. The letters are die cuts that I painted and the images are from various books and magazines, including National Geographic.

This is a really bad picture of the tag I placed inside the picket. I used gold and blue paint on one side and red and yellow on the other. The Mosque is a tape transfer.

Again, you can't really see much except texture and glare in this scan, but all the names of the countries in Asia are listed.

Fashionable Shoe is made with scrapbook paper background, a cabinet card, wire, a silk flower, and stickers.

Looking more like a scrapbook page than an AB, the background is wallpaper. Brown mats were used behind the photos and the dark and red brown squares are leftovers from scrapbook layouts. I stapled the fibers onto the page, because glue didn't hold anything on the wallpaper. I ended up using double sided tape to hold the images to the wallpaper.Left closeup
