Domino book







This is for a challenge, with the theme "friendship". The domino book was sent to us. The first thing I did of course was take it apart. I then painted the wooden dominoes with gesso and then.... well just let myself loose on it.

the pictures show the front, the back and the bit in between.

    nice nice nice.. and I love how you let the front images spill over beyond the domino size .. I am too "inside the box" with my thinking..

    I was just drawn to the design of the covers...so very beautiful. It inspires me to try making one of these.
