2017 Diary

Welcome again to another month. 

February is here and I am first up on the Memory Maze
blog. I bought myself a boring black diary for this year with the intentions of decorating it.
Turning it into something beautiful

Firstly I painted around the edges of my diary with some white gesso.

I had to give it two coats to cover the black.

I had some scraps from a Kaisercraft range left sitting on my desk. 

I covered the back, front and spine with the paper using matt medium as 

I knoew I wanted to use media on the front.

Then I took some more scraps and collectables from the same range

and placed them on top of each other

until I was happy with them. Stick these down as well then I curled the edges.

I used some light molding paste and a circle mask

Placing this all over the front of the book. 

I sprayed the three colours letting them dry between coats.

I stamped the background using archival black ink and a script stamp also went around the sides 

I painted my chipboard with white gesso and then used embossing powder

to emboss them.
