Last week really was a busy week. Here is a slideshow of an accordion book in a tin I made for a paperarts swap. It is not as orange as it looks in the pics. I used the Tim Holtz crackle paint in spiced marmalade and went over it with Golden quin azo gold and burnt orange washes. I was surprised how easy the paint was to use and how quickly it crackled.
This is my first attempt at a slide show.Let me know what you think.

Your slide show looks great. I would never have guessed it was your first if you hadn't said. Love the 'art' too.

I don't really see alot of orange as you mentioned, but I love your vivid red, even though I'm not a red person, your tin book looks great, striking, especially with your collage of background stamps in contrasting black. Lucky recipient who received you swap. I love it.
Slide show worked well.
