and painted with different colors.
and painted with different colors.
This project is not yet finished.
I'm still looking through my stash of odds and ends
to see what I can put on the cover.
So far, there's a resin medallion.
I drew on a dictionary page and pasted it
on the back of the medallion.
I cut up an old leather skirt to make
the binding and the tie.
And for my morning prayers,
I did this to remember Matthew 13:8-9.
May I always let the Word fall on good soil
so I may bear much fruit!
If you'd like to take a sneak peak
at what other people have on their work desk,
head over to Julia.
I guarantee you'll want to
join in on the fun!

Hi,
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely little book and great idea of using wall putty. I would never have thought of using wall putty to give texture but now that is on my list of things to try.
I found you through the "Blog Hop" and I'll check back to see how your book is coming along.
Blessings!
I forgot to add: I love your blog name! My blog is called altered heART works
