"Into the Crypt" - Continued

I have 5 pages roughed in. It's a bit difficult to see the layers at this point, but they are coming along nicely. I'm thinking I will add an acetate page between the cover and the first page and give it a misty appearance. I believe this will make the cover stand out more and give the whole book more depth ... we'll see ...

I just ahd a thought loking at your amazinf book and I know that you did not ask, but....... what about a very thin sheet of mica???? give it sort of a murky feel and make the cover stand out at the same time!!!

Wish that I could join you at Art Fest!!
Hugs!

Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...

This is coming along nicely, Ingrid. I agree that the transparency might add more depth. I also think it might add just enough mystery to make you want to open it.
