book of words

I was so lucky to have been drawn as one of  the winners during the spray inks play dates from Carolyne Dube. Earlier this week I received my happy mail, the wonderfull wall of words stencil which I off course needed to testdrive immediately.
I decided to make a little book of which each page contains 1 quote of the stencil. As the stencil has 28 quotes on it, I rummaged through my box of prints and choose 14 pages that caught my eye and made a simple pamflet booklet out of them. For the cover I turned ones more to my mop up pages which lay on my desk. 



These are a few examples of the pages:




The intention of this book was to try out the stencil, to have a reference of all the cool quotes on the stencil and each page is a starting point to be further explored. But I must say I already like it a lot with only the gelli print and a quote on it.
Thanks Carolyne for this awesome stencil, it will be well used.
