Altered Book Lover: Gilt Edge

I'm once again joining Matilde from Craftowanie, our host this month at Art Journal Journey. You probably know by now her theme is People.

I'm sure you can see where I got the title Gilt Edge. The vintage sheet music background was colored using pink and brown water soluble crayons.

This is a detail of the focal image before I mistakenly covered the words with the brown fancy fibers. I believe (but am not certain) this image came from The Graphics Fairy.

Bleubeard and I are very grateful you stopped by today. We would love to see you at Art Journal Journey with your own interpretation of People.

Because there is a face in this post, I'm also sharing it with Nicole's Friday Face Off. It's been awhile since I participated, but hope to do so more often.

Bleubeard and I welcome you

Art, including the journey, background techniques, sewing on both paper and fabric, new experiments, photos, failures, and successes will be shared on this site. I have removed my e-mail address until such time as I can get it to work again. Thank you for understanding. You can always leave a note on my blog and I will visit you.

Please check out my Previous Collaborations link above to see what projects I have been involved in over the past 12 years. Current and ongoing projects only are shown below.

Occasionally, Silent Sunday will showcase photos of my home, neighborhood, or community. A picture is often worth a thousand words.

Feel free to drop by every second Thursday of the month for my Second Thursday Tutorials. They are interspersed with my other Tutorials found at the link page above.
