Sadly, not long after that, one of our participants went AWOL, taking Clare's book with her :( So, in order to finish off my commitments to this CJ as a whole, I needed to re-create my entry
I still have some small hope that the original book might one day re-surface, however, so I didn't want to simply copy what I did before. In fact I didn't even stick to the colour red, this time I chose orange.
Or, to be more specific, tangerine - for the Led Zeppelin song of the same name.
I did keep the same basic shape though, as I like the way it folds up.
Above is how it looks closed, with the 4 famous symbols representing the members of Led Zep
And here it is opened up:
The patchwork style background is watercoloured, the picture (I used a photo of Florence from Florence and the Machine as her almost medieval look suits the lyrics of the song well, I think) is an image transfer, and the writing around the edge was done using Posca paint pens
The back all opened up with my sign in in the middle:
And the matching "spine" part:
And that's it, I'm all done!
It's been fun ladies! (apart from the one book going walkies of course)
Round 3 another time maybe???

Oh Sarah that's absolutely gorgeous you are the second person to mention those paint pens recently I might have to get myself one to see what they are like. Loving the colour scheme overall such a gorgeous shade of orange loving the image transfer too most apt.
Ditto what Virginia said - I may have to add those pens to my wishlist.
This page is equally as gorgeous as the first was. I love Florence's look anyway but she fits so fabulously onto this colour scheme.
Boooooo to another CJ going walkies :(
The colours are delicious! I love the first go round too! Hope it shows up somewhere, sometime!
