Walnut Inky!

Recently I spent a lot of time completing a special project (sorry, can't go into to details, since it is in the process of being published). Anyway, I mixed up a batch of walnut ink for this project, and I wanted to use most of it up before tossing the excess. So, I went crazy, walnut-inking many different kinds of papers: heavy card stock, watercolor paper, sketchbook paper, music sheets, paper doilies, even a couple pages in my art journal. I think sometimes brown is underrated, it's a good color!

More Altered Art - Book Pages

These are two altered book pages I completed (in real life, the truck page is on the right). The pages are inked with a multicolor dye ink pad first. The truck is raised with sticky foam strips and has a real watch face in the back. The hand and clock are attached with brads and are both movable.

Altered Book Pages

When I make new arts and crafts projects that I can show to the public, I'll add them here. Also, as I find interesting techniques, products, websites or blogs, I'll share them. Here is a project I completed a while back. These are altered book pages - I inked the pages, folded and glued them to make pockets, then added tags with butterfly images.
