My Book of Vintage: Summer All Things Altered blog hop

Hello, my dear crafting friends!Today I want to share my new altered book. A real book, not selfmade kind I do a lot.
I used Prima goodies  as papers and flowers, Tim Holtz dies for the spine using embossed with TH embossed TH grunge paper. I painted all chipboards with Creative Inspirations paints, mostly Metallic Copper, but some others too. I added this Handmade Halo  delicious watch charm, but I altered it to copper and teal colors using TH alcohol inks.  Then I sprayed all the book with Goose Bumps spray for this vintage  look. The word Vintage was stamped (The Rubber Cafe Vintage Treasures set) and heat embossed with CIP Copper powder.

 




The inside of my book was made as a shabby flower window, using Prima flowers, Handmade Halo cameo and a lot of stamping with the same clock stamp.
I just hope you like this project I am so  proud of.
