{Lil’ Miss Blue Skies – Altered Book Cover}

July 27, 2010

This is “Lil’ Miss Blue Skies” another book cover that I altered. I tried to keep within a blue theme as the old book is a medium gray tone. I used Digi Sheet #107 from Paper Whimsy. Old Book text, K & Company papers, seam binding ribbon, metal photo corners, vintage lace, vintage celluloid buttons, and a heart charm. The altered cover will be available on my Etsy Shop. Her sweet face reminds me of “Rebecca on Sunnybrook Farm” :) Happy Wednesday and may you have nothing but blue skies overhead!

    I have a feeling you brought the blue skies to Perth :) Another incredible piece of art. I'm not normally a fan of blue but this blue is so gorgeous. Beautiful. Lynne M
