How about a quick and easy way to show off your new technique skills?! Sit and play with the colors of choice (of course I selected mine from the CC497 challenge + Greens and Browns). Once you have several pieces of glossy card stock that look beautiful - use a 'square punch' to simply punch out your favorite tiny pieces of art!
To make the book
Cut a 3" wide strip of watercolor paper (whatever length you prefer), score it every 3" and cut off any extra that is less than 3". Glue your small pieces of artwork on each page, then then glue larger 2 7/8 x 2 7/8 pieces on the front - don't forget to stamp a title on your book too!
P.S. You don't have to use watercolor paper, but it looks so rich in this format! Yummy!
Hugs,
Audrie

I've used your alcohol marker marbling technique 4 or 5 times since last Wednesday, and I've enjoyed the surprise of seeing each piece. I made one pink and purple, one fall shades of rust, green and gold, and a shades-of-pink design. I love the idea of keeping samples in a book like this one--and I love the sentiment on the front! Thanks so much!
