Yes I've "altered" a chipboard book cover - the 'altered' bit is for
Julia's benefit, she'll understand ;) I bought some chipboard covers ages ago from Ideal World. They were meant to be used just as one half of a flower but I wasn't happy using that as a shape - if I ever get round to putting some piccies in. So have joined 2 pieces, coloured it with DI and mica powders. For the raised bits I used
'Golden' gel medium with a stencil. I've added Grungepaper flowers and leaves and a butterfly - just card. I think now I should have left a longer tail of string at the top and threaded a few more beads on. I used some lovely Anna Griffin clear flourish stamps; bought on last Craft Day :)
