Blue on Blue

 What a fun thing to create for a book cover!!!  I wanted to do a few more of these little plastic tiles for a book cover... this book is only 4X5 and so perfect for what I am doing with it... It is the first little book of my grandsons birth.. I didn't like the first one I did... so I am really redoing it... LOL... not that I dont' have more and other things to do... just wanted to re-do this one... 

The cover of the book was purple... which I loved.. but I used Twinkling H20's and covered the purple...  then I added alittle strip of My Minds eye paper... adn then a Martha Stewart border ... now that is where I added the GOLD for this project... As on Sunday Stamper we are to add GOLD.... it is there... hope you can see it...  

Simon Says Stamp and Show challenge this week is to create anything other than a card... so this is not a card... that is for sure... and this is perfect for the cover of this sweet little book... 

The Tiles are for Grungy Monday... Linda loves doing Tim's Techniques (as do I)  and this is a great one.  When I first did it, I thought it wouldn't work... but it certainly did... love it... Try this technique... you will love it... a little alcohol ink... a little plastic, and you will have fun... I am going to try this with a sheet of packaging today... I have not done anything really large and want to try it... These pieces were made with three colors of blue and a little green... so it is was a multi colored thing... love blending the inks too... what don't I like???  CLEANING.... LOL... actually I really do like it... but prefer my studio... dont' you??? 



I used Tapestry stamps as I wanted to create a small design for this small book... and I do love the feeling of it... sort of a small batik design....  Anyway... that is project for today... 

Some gals have written asking if I have started my quilting... which I have not at all started... a few set backs... our kids were here for a week... and our son and his family are leaving I think today... so we are just finishing up with our Christmas time together... it has been fun and we all loved all the gifts that we had all made and bought from all over the world...  I will share a few later on this week... have to get my life re-situated again... LOL  I do know that you all understand that... that is an understatement...  

My quilt is waiting for the fabric to arrive... and then it was canceled ... so I am having to find the muslin I want to use again...  so am waiting on finding that... it will be a long project for this winter and most likely a years time... you will see the panels on my blog... don't worry about that ... I will share.  

Hope that you have a wonderful day... stay safe and happy and remember to enjoy life... 

Love, Light and Peace..Bonnie
