Success at Last.

There was a point to my marbling escapade last weekend , not only that I wanted to do more for future use but I had a project in mind. My friend is having a birthday tomorrow , darn things crop up every year....so we had a lovely lunch at a local resturant with our other friend  yesterday and a good time was had by all.

The following photos are her gift of a book I had made  which some readers may recognize. I couldn't leave it alone as not totally happy with the previous works and needed to satify the urge to improve and try to produce something close to what I had originally though of. Yes ,I am happy with it so can move on now.

Birthday Gift.
The book ends I prepared some paste paper and thumb printed it and these were also used in the cutout areas through the book.

Signed, sealed and delivered.

I enjoyed the challenge of changing an original into another acceptable piece of art work, nothing is ever "lost".
