Chunky book page

Today was spent doing my 8 chunky pages for our Altered Book Club. The theme was "Wings" and I wanted to do something a little different. We received a whole heap of new Zetti stamps in at work and of course I HAD to have some more of their weird & wonderful stamps! We've also got a great new range of Stampers Anonymous stamps too - though I have most of the ones that I want of those....except of course a couple of Michael deMeng's fantastic stamps....next order maybe!

So this is my Wings chunky page, our particular chunky pages are 4" x 4" square though some chunky books are different measurements, this is a fairly common size for them.


The little charm hanging off is a zetti stamp that I did on shrink plastic....too cute!!! Okay, maybe not cute, but darn spooky cute... below is the back of the page - the prose on the front is continued on the back...


The splotchy bits on the back are the Starburst Stains - this particular colour that you really can't see really well is called Black Orchid and the front page was spritzed with a Moon Shadow Mist in Long John Silver .....great names!

I also was lucky enough to receive another wonderful ATC from Belinda Schneider, I absolutely love her sense of colour and composition....this one is just gorgeous!

That's it for now, I hope to have another play on Friday as I need to get 9 atc's done for our Art Tarts Club alphabet book - my next letter is "Q" and the first thing that pops into my head is Quicksand....sheesh! lol

Kelsey these pages are fabulous! And I like that the shrinkie is slightly cute - takes the fear factor away.

the background for the main page is terrific, smoke, clouds and dried blood all come to mind.
