I've been stuck at home sick for the last couple days so I decided to make River Song's journal. It's not perfect, but it will do! sorry if these pics are sideways. I can never get this right from my phone!
Before: (from the Dollar Tree)
After putting the cardboard on and covering in a layer or two of tissue paper:
Base coat:
Second coat, with added undertones to match the color a little better: (It's darker than the original blue, but not as dark as the picture makes it out to be.)
Now I just have to touch up a few places and coat it in modge podge. I only did the front because I was too lazy to do the back.
That looks great! I have no geeky things going on, I made 4 scarfs today, and working on a Christmas wreath for next year. I ordered some new shirts that I am going to try that vneck Dr girlfriend posted
