Here is some of what I&#8217;m working on now.<\/p>\n<p>This is a &#8220;book&#8221; my mom made from some of those free AOL cd holders. She glued three of them together, gessoed it and crackled the front.<\/p>\n<p>[image:72:c]<\/p>\n<p>This is the first page in the book. I printed the image and words on tissue paper ironed to freezer paper and then glued them on with gel medium.<\/p>\n<p>[image:74:c]<\/p>\n<p>Here is a shot of the pull out that goes in the first pocket.

Its a crackle technique with elmers glue and paint. I saw this technique when I was browsing through the new <a onclick=\"javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('\/outgoing\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/1581806787\/ref=wl_itt_dp\/102-6720710-1224963?%5Fencoding=UTF8&#038;colid=9097LFQQCSQJ&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;coliid=IKHHB5INPC87Q&#038;v=glance&#038;n=283155');\"  href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/1581806787\/ref=wl_itt_dp\/102-6720710-1224963?%5Fencoding=UTF8&#038;colid=9097LFQQCSQJ&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;coliid=IKHHB5INPC87Q&#038;v=glance&#038;n=283155\">Claudine Hellmuth<\/a> book.
