concertina book by Veronica

 my final share this month is the small concertina book, with flowers on one side and underwater bits on the other. I risked sanity by playing with editing effects and managed to brighten the photos up a bit, but the colours look a bit pale now.
I cheated and used the strip of ready scored drawing cartridge from the craftalong pack as the base , and coloured both sides using distress oxides and water on my craft mat.
I cut pieces of drawing cartridge for the panels and covers, and inked the covers to match the base piece.
Images stamped in black versafine ink and coloured with watercolour pencils , apart from the cog image which was randomly inked with distress oxide pads.
You will be relieved to hear that the scanner is now talking to the computer - well, I am anyway!- so better pix next time.
