This is a really big journal and I can't get everything in one picture.  This is the best that I can do.  I hope you get the idea. I absolutely adore pop ups.  Check out Robert Sabuda's books.  He does amazing pop ups.  I'm not in his league, yet.  But I still loved to make pop ups in my altered books and journals.

I promised I would show another use for Iridescent Stainless Steel (Coarse) by Golden.  So, here is a journal page with that paint and Giconda soft pastel pencils.  The coarseness of the paint feels gritty almost like sandpaper because of that it really grabs hold of the pastels (probably any soft pastels will work).  I have not used any fixative on top of the pastels and yet I cannot rub the pastel off.  It works really well.  Let me know if you give it a try! Here is a close up.

Where did this month go?  Heck where did the year go? Here's hoping that 2010 is your best year ever! Karen who posted a comment on Dec. 5th is the winner of the blog candy!  Karen send me your address and I will put the transfer foil in the mail to you. One last picture of my fat book.  It's approximately four inches thick and hopefully you can see by this picture that it is bound together by lace.
