DAY #30 OF THE 31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN

Well its Halloween eve.... and this hop is nearly at an end.... the blog list is on my side bar....please check out Terra's blog for all the rules and a list of the wonderfully generous sponsors.
During this hop i have made quite a few pages for a book.... and  more than a few ATC's....that i decided to make into a book also.... so for my final day posting to the DE-STEMPELWINKEL DESIGN TEAM BLOG  in October i have to share with you the book covers created using DE-STEMPELWINKEL stamps
This is the ATC book, it contains 12 ATC'S plus note paper pages to write on.... it fastens with a ribbon tie.
                                           
Its coloured with promarkers and copious amounts of black and grey ink...as per usual.
I couldnt come this close to Halloween without another POE project.....
                                                                   
This i think you'd call a 'mini'.....? It consists of 6x double sided hard-board pages.... held together with book rings. For my cover i used a piece of designer paper and altered it with various stamps,stamped and masked to make a halloween/Poe scene. I kept the colours muted.... used promarkers and yet more ink...... thats it now just one more day to go.
Thanks for visiting me. BDx

  6. Well, I am just flabbergasted! Your books are mind-blowing and gorgeous and all of the superlatives I can think of but I'm amazed that you have added bookbinding to your many skills. I'm staring at it and do not see how you got it together so neatly. Love it!
