Altered Domino's

This week Louise of Zuzu's Petals 'n' Stuff has selected the theme... altering domino's.


You may use any technique Louise has made a Domino Book with plastic white Dominoes .. alcohol Inked and stamped.. with a piece of accordion folded paper stuck between the two to make an accordion book.the folded paper has been inked , collaged and stamped first.


Here's some good articles on decorating dominoes:
Domino Art Part I pretty basic, tells you what supplies you need

Domino Art This one uses the domino's in jewelry and on cards but does not give you a step by step...very pretty art though.

Tips Sharpie tips, coloring tips and drilling holes, no photo's


Remember Drying time does not count against you and most importantly have fun!

Hello my name is rebecca kurowski
I am thinking of buying some dominoes from walmart I plan on using mod podge and wrapping the dominoes in the paper and letting it dry and drawing a penguin on the paper then painting the penguin
I have never done altered art before it seems easy enough to do.
I already draw on small pieces of paper like inchies which are 1 inch x 1 inch. the large sized dominoes are 1 inch x 2 inches.
I hope I can learn alot.
you are all necessary
