Old book gets new life

So I love Altered Books. There is nothing like taking an old worn out book and giving it a new life.

Here is an old worn out book I found at a garage sale last summer and I finally decided to give it some TLC

I began coving it with Gesso and gave it some texture using rubber stamps. Once it dried I gave it a few coats of glaze, brown, green then pink. I added an image transfer to it and here it is so far. I will be working on it and will share my progress as I go.

It's going to be cold and snowy here this weekend but it won't affect me one bit! LOL I will be huddled up in my art room working on my book, listening to music, visiting with my daughter who is here for the weekend to do artsy stuff with me. She is going to K-State and one of her classes is a 3d art class so she will be working on a project as I work on my little project; only mine won't be for a grade:) So off we go now.. . Happy Creating!
