Book 20 - for series 52


week 20 : book 20
I know, I am behind but I don't mind if it takes a little longer to create 52 books. 

This time a mixed media cover to an existing book,
a Bible that is very dear to someone I know.

I sew the (loose) signatures and binded it so it looks new and can be used again!
 I made the cover for it from sturdy cardboard, and with the elastic band as shown.  


Some gold foiling in the wet paint and on the heat embossing. 




LOVE the crackle and the colors.

I am entering this in the challenge on 
1. series 52 - just a play with creating a book every week; a challenge I set to myself.
