How do you get to Carnegie Hall ? - Intermission


...lets have a break from the boxes, umm, an intermission if you will....
Marylin Horne celebrated 50 years appearing on stage at Carnegie Hall, so we made this to celebrate....
The usual stuff, but i decided to make a slipcase for the last two books, with the plate stamped and recessed in a well.The book is all leaf, but the fabric is a great foil....
You could stamp directly on the cover by backing the fabric onto a card stock the size of the case, but i decided to do it this way, as the plate is difficult, and if you mess it up, you end up wasting a lot of asahi.
More boxes to come........
