Kokeshi Flap Book

If you watched the show on Create & Craft on Wednesday you would have caught a glimpse of the books that we decorated. This is Vicky's Flap Book. The front image has been layered onto vellum which was then stitched to the book with a Paper Cord. The whole book has been bound together with Paper Cords.
Flirty Girl, Qbit flowers have been stamped onto the wavy vine to create blossoms.

Japanese background stamp has been stamped with versamark onto glossy card and then Blending Blox multi coloured inkpad wiped over the top to add the colour. The chop has been stamped into Amazing Glaze to create the faux wax seal.

China Girl and Dancing Girl, Weeping Willow and Japanese background stamps.

A painted heart has been outlined with a paper cord. The weeping willow is embossed in copper twinkle, Bunny Girl. Sky and grass has been created with Eclipse masking tape and stippling colour.

Weeping Willow has been been stamped in Versmark onto glossy card. When dry it has been covered with dye based inkpads and then buffed with a piece of tissue.
