Moon Notebook by LOUISE CROSBIE
Hi.
Sometimes, when I ask friends what they'd like for Christmas (usually stocking filler cost), they say “make me something”.
That’s daunting lol.
But a bit of a safe bet is a notebook.
The notebooks in The Mad Scrapper shop are not very expensive. This one cost £6 and by carefully removing the cover, I can safely go nuts with mixed media, and not risk mucking up the rest of the notebook.
So I’m doing a few notebooks this week.
This is the first.
I’ve used a stencil first then glued on metal elements (some kindly gifted to me by a lady called Sheena after we met at “The Mad Scrapper” retreat), as well as resin pieces cast from Finnabair moulds and some dusty attic chipboard gears/cogs.
When everything was glued into place it got a coat of black gesso then I added colour using paints.
There’s loads of mica, Metallique wax, and sparkle included but the photo doesn’t show it.
So that’s my first Yule/Christmas gift notebook made. Now I must get on with some more.
Thanks for visiting the design team blog.
