Mini knjigica

Knjigice me še niso spustile, še vedno raziskujem in poskušam, kaj in kako še … tako je nastala tale v usnje vezana miniaturica. Velika je 42 x 35 mm. Usnje je oblikovano z okrasnimi vezicami in rahlo poudarjenim srčkom. Predlist in spojni list sta poslikana z akrili. Signature so klasično šivane.

I’m still trying various book binding techniques. This is a miniature, 1” x  1,6”, bound in leather, decorated with raised bands and a relief heart outline on the cover. I painted the end paper and the flyleaf as well. The signatures are sewn in.

Swap recept

Moji swapiki sta recept dobili, zato ga lahko objavim. Tokrat sem uporabila nekaj Julijinih tehnik za lepšanje papirja, tako da so vsi koščki poslikani. Ker je ta visokotehnološka familija ta hip nekoliko švoh z barvnimi kartušami, sem z distresom senčila tudi fotografijo – če so se pa pudingi nekoliko rozasto natisnili, no, kaj čem. Bomo nabavili nove kartuše. Fotografije sem tiskala na foto papir. Na večini mojih swap receptov so prave fotografije domačega izdelka. Žal ne na vseh.

I participated in another collaged recipe swap. A tiny one, I had to make only 3 copies including mine. I choose the topic and it probably wasn’t an interesting one – side dishes. I made Yorkshire puddings. I used Julie’s techniques for making pretty papers, that’s why on the photo the paper is a bit bended – I did iron the cardboard after painting it, but it didn’t work much. They will flatten over time in good company of other scrap-recipes.
