Whisper from JacQ's book

JacQ's book was a hard one! However I finally decided on something, my page is quite busy and also overall, (at least on the inside), quite dark in colour. There are however some lighter/brighter areas, like the little piece in the above image! Once again there is a story, I used found text to create the story, the few lines of text were left over from a previous project! It's interesting to use found text to create a story and quite amazing how it actually seems to make sense and fit the theme in mind.
This is my last post for tonight! I have been on a roll and the computer has been behaving itself! Yahoo!!!!

It's only two nights until Christmas, so to all out there in collaborator's land, have a wonderful Christmas with your families and friends, may the New Year bring you health, happiness and creativity!
love, Peta

A Whisper from Kristin's book

I love to work in layers and I love using phone book pages as the first layer, I paint over the pages with gesso, in the above whisper I have also used a light wash of blue ink. On top of this I have used oil of wintergreen to transfer a toner photocopy of an image I sketched while on a train travelling to New York, the final layer was text using a zig pen!
Kristin has once again provided us with an interesting format for her book, I just hope I got close to the theme that Kristin had in mind, if not hopefully you like it anyway Kristin......I had a lot of fun putting it together!

A little peek at Peta's page fro Tracey's book!

I wonder what this book could be about? From all the clues it looked like.................so that's just what I went ahead and did!
There is a true story involved, which has a happy ending.....got the picture? or maybe not!!
Great pages Tracey, love the recycling that's going on in this collaboration!

Whisper for Jen's book

Hi Whisperers!
It's been a while since I've posted, however now if I'm successful I shalll post a couple of whispers up.
Jen, I loved the Turkish Map fold format of your book and also the backgrounds of maps and gelatine printing!
I hope I've worked out the theme!
