Good afternoon stencil lovers! This is Rachel Kleinman here to share a little book I created made out of finished gelatin plate monoprints.
The entire book is created with finished printed pages. Sometimes after a good monoprinting session I don’t always know what to do with all the finished printed pages I have. This book is an easy way to keep them all in one place as a display.
The fun thing about gelatin printing is that you can use the same stencils and same paints and still end up with 3 completely different looking prints. My book has a total of 12 pages/prints and measures 5″ x 3.5″.
Putting the book together was pretty easy. I started by folding each finished page in half. Then I adhered the back of one page to the back of the next page, making sure the creased edges were all on the same side. Then I trimmed a piece of adhesive fabric to create the spine binding. Finally, I cut two more pieces of a finished print to glue on as the front and back covers.
Now I’ll share some of the inside pages!
And that’s only half of the pages! To see ALL the inside prints please visit my blog post HERE.
Thanks for stopping by! Enjoy the rest of your creative weekend 🙂
