Parisian Domino Book

This week at Simon Says Stamp and Show it is Anything Goes.  I took the opportunity to try something new and create a Parisian Domino Book.

I participate in an Art Swap group and they were sharing domino books. They were so inspiring that I decided to try to make my own.

I  painted the covers of the domino surface using StazOn Metallic - Silver Ink.   

 

I stamped the images inside and on the book cover using  the  Stampendous Charm Collection.   The cover is decorated with gems, feathers and a pretty Kaiser Resin Flower.    The metallic trim is embossed using silver embossing powder. 

 

Here is the book opened:  (Click on it to see it enlarged)

 I cut a strip of cardstock slightly smaller than the length of the domino and 13 times the width. I scored at the width measurement until I reached the end of the strip of cardstock.  I folded the scores back and forth to create an accordion fold. I sponged the edges of each fold and around the outside  using blue dye ink.

The end pieces were stamped using the lace stamp and black ink. 

I stamped the chandelier and the roses using black ink along the left side. I stamped the butterfly and bird twice to pop them and add a layer. 

The music score was added intermittently along the middle.  The script and postmark were stamped in the middle.

The Eiffel tower was stamped on acetate using black StazOn.

I added flourishes the cameo and more butterflies and flowers. 

Everything was colored with a touch of watercolor pencils and a waterbrush. There are some gems and pearls added as touches to the images.
