Chunky Madness

Just what I needed -- another addiction! As if ATCs and inchies and rolos weren't enough, now I've got myself hooked on chunky pages, too! They're 4 inches by 4 inches and super fun! Here are a few a made for trades on ATCSforAll with nursery rhyme themes:



And here is a bound book. I got these pages from different trades, then made covers and bound them on metal rings. I love how all the fibers and charms and beads and whatnot look when they stick out all over the place. My kind of madness :)

Make It Mondays - April 14, 2008

Lisa Vollrath is putting up a new challenge every Monday on Go Make Something. This week's challenge was music. I did a 4x4 page based on REM's song "Night Swimming." I glued on some background papers, smeared on acrylic paint, then drew on top and colored with markers and colored pencils. This song always reminds me of a fun time I had with some friends in Saratov on the Volga river, so I drew the bridge that crosses the Volga there, and one of the pretty lampposts that are on the embankment.
