More Katy Keene book pages

I am thoroughly enjoying playing with molding pastes and other caulking products to produce texture on these pages.
Here is page 3 of my Katy Keene book, the Gold page.
You can find the first two pages here:

I started with sewing tissue crumpled up and glued down. The process is the same as with the first two pages. After glueing down the image, I use Diamond Glaze or Clear Tar Gel by Golden to prevent the image from color spray damage. (I use a variety of colors of spray, mostly muted shades.)

I am currently picking out embellies for my next page!

Chipboard Book Pages

Here are a couple of pages from a chipboard book that I am altering/decorating.

The process is simple but each step takes some time for the drying process. (I leave mine to air-dry)

Start by adding gesso to the entire page, making textures at the same time. After this is dry, use modelling paste to create more texture – then gently push small embellishments in a pleasing manner into the paste. I have also used plaster gauze beside the Katy Keene image.

After this step has dried, spray or paint with your choice of colors – let dry after each color application, or they will mix, sometimes making a brown mess. (unless this is the effect you’re going for!)

After dry, use some rub and buff or your favorite wax paste to color the tops of the texture. I have used Viva Decor’s Inka Gold. I love this paint.

I have five pages for this book – three to go!

My sisters have suggested that I put them up on the wall, as a set of five – What do you think?
