Day 5 Finale
"POE Book"
SVG Cutz
by Leigh
For today's finale of our POEtastic 7th annual Poe Appreciation Blog Hop I'm back to share my POE Book featuring the "POE Book" - Make-a-Book SVG Cutz set included in the Edgar Allan Poe SVG Cutz 2022 release🖤
To make my POEtastic POE BOOK I started out by resizing the grouped "assembled" set as large as possible in Silhouette Studio so the book was nearly 4 inches tall and I could cut the largest page, the "E" page, out of a sheet of 8.5 x 11" heavy weight black cardstock.
I cut all 3 of the POE letter pages out of Crafter's Companion heavy weight black cardstock using my Silhouette Cameo 4.
I then made mirror images of each letter page and cut them out of the same cardstock. To make each page nice and chunky and sturdy I then glued each page to its mirror version.
I wanted a vintage look with touches of metallic bronze so I cut each of the mat layers out of various patterned cardstocks as well as mirror versions of each mat too. For the "P" page I used a sheet of Tim's Halloween Idea-ology paper and 2 DCWV papers for the "O" and "E" pages.
I applied Bronze Spectrum Noir Midas metallic pigment ink to both sides of each page and all the mats and then adhered the mats to the pages. I then cut the separate POE letters overlays included the SVG Cutz set from Scrapbook.com’s glitter paper and the matching mats from Tim’s copper mirror cardstock.
I adhered the letter overlays to the mats and then adhered each letter to the book pages.
I made pages for my book from black cardstock in different lengths and punched holes in those too.
Here’s the back cover of the book which I decorated with more DCWV paper.
I decided to put past Poe makes inside my book and the page lengths are determined by the size of each make.
