Textures on Newspaper pages


I was playing with a variety of textures on torn strips of newspaper. After tearing the sheets freehand, I glued two pieces together to make the pages more sturdy, but not the same height. I then proceeded to paint, spritz, and apply molding paste through stencils onto the pages. I also did some stamping.

I then folded them in half and placed them inside a leather cover, and stitched just one signature.

The brass clasp is from the hardware store....just love going there for supplies!
