I joined a swap for a domino book on one of my Yahoo Groups and struggled. With the virus I have had (for ages - will it ever go away?) I found it difficult to concentrate on anything. In fact my lovely friend Leigh (on another Yahoo Group) has postponed the dates for me with another swap I was involved in because I could just not get my head around it. Shame really because my partner was on target. You will get to see this later as I will blog the stages in the swap (it is Artists in Synergy) which is ongoing for three stages.
Anyway, up to the wire for the Domino Book I just about made the deadline. I decided to do "Alice in Wonderland".
This is the book closed
Back and Front covers
"Stamped Dominoes"
The book opened
Pages before sticking in
I first prepped my dominoes using Brilliance ink, coloured the images with Sharpies and then put Glossy Accents over the top to seal them and give a glossy finish. Then I cut a long strip of scrapbook paper and measured out my pages, stamping and colouring in each image.
I put some ribbon across the inside of the back domino and stuck my page on, folded it up, accordion style, and stuck to the front domino. The back of the scrapbook paper was left as it was.
Hope my partner likes it.

This is stunning Neet. Love the Alice & Mad Hatter images you've stamped on the dominoes. Beautifully composed and your colouring is beautiful. Also, if you turn up Saturday, I'll tell you about Little Moreton Hall. Hope your virus clears up soon. Pxx
