My first try at making a door that you can open in a book. It is in my altered book Book of Dreams. Can you detect it?
Retreat from the world.
The paper door is made out of a handwritten text page:
And maybe, if you open the door, you’ll see your summer retreat…
I love this picture, the nature, the girls dress and the cat that is visiting her on the stone wall.
That’s brilliant!! How exciting!!
f?r ungef?r ett och ett halvt ?r sedan s?kte jag bilder p? langettstygn p? internet, och hamnade p? din sida. Uppenbarligen har du och jag samma intressen (second hand-shopping, b?cker, inredning, hantverk, skrivande) och jag blev fullst?ndigt inspirerad av att l?sa vad du skrev, titta p? dina bilder etc., s? sedan dess har jag frekvent ?terv?nt till denna blogg f?r att samla inspiration.
Keep writing! Din blogg ?r den b?sta jag hittills l?st!
Kramar till dig
What a clever door! I like the texture of these pages :)
I am having trouble finding something to prepare my pages with for the altered book… there is no Gesso i Sveirge…can you tell me what you use for the base coat on an altered book?
wonderful–!!!
Isn’t that fun! I did a Collaborative Art Project or Journal Project the last couple month. It was a lot of fun making in others book pages. I like your style in your journals!
