Hand dyed Papers for book covers

Right well I am getting ready to do a craft show at work and doing up some journal type books with removeable and non removeable covers ....
Using some felt and cutting up some shapes will do hand sewing on these... then
using hand dyed papers ... Look how rich they look when you put the acrylic wax on them
yummy hope everyone else thinks the same way and scoops up the books
ok off to do more.
Later

Rich colours once you put acrylic wax on the papers.
