My swap partner reads a book a day, so I wanted to make it look like a book. She likes different shades of greens and listens to classical music, so I incorporated those ideas, it still didn't come out very artistic. I sent it anyway since I already spent 2 hours on it...God I hope she likes it!! This is actually the "copy" that I made to keep, I forgot to take a pic of hers before I sent it. So hers will be a little bit nicer than this one. I tore and distressed a piece of sheet music (my husband plays the Euphonium in a wind symphony), and die cut the music note, painted it with white acrylic, stamped it in black stazon and put a few coats of UTEE on it. The "binding" of the book is some textured paper sprayed with Color wash sprays and then perfect pearls mist. Anyway, I don't really draw, so my ATCs are more scrapbook style....
I need to go work on the summer trip scrapbook and get that guy finished!!!
Have a great day!
