Life book page

Here is another page made for my life book course..

For this lesson we were instructed on how to make some inspirational ATC sized bits..

First I cut my bases, I used corrugated card from an old box.

I then painted on several layers of paint, in different colours. I believe by this point there were 3 layers.



A couple more layers and some stencilling..



next we were to sand the paint back to reveal the layers, i found this didnt work so well and I ended up using rubbing alcohol.


Next I searched for images and words to add to them. After trying out a few different ideas I decided to go with butterflies..


and finally added the words.. also you can see I slipped them into a plastic page with  pockets, this will mean they are easier to add into the final book.
