Life Begins At 50: An MDF Book and My blogging Journey

I started this blog exactly one week before my 50th birthday.  I had never done anything like it before and I wondered if anyone would be interested in my love of crafting and some of my projects.  One of the most viewed projects on my blog was an early share: the MDF card/book that I made for my twin sister's 50th birthday.  I bought this Kaisercraft MDF book on a whim as it was half price but I was really pleased with the way it turned out - and my sister loved her birthday book.



The colour scheme was easy - my sister's favourite combination.  Having primed the MDF with white gesso I painted the front and back panels with Reeves Lavender Acrylic paint and the middle panel with Pebeo Studio Acrylics Iridescent Green Yellow (359).  I then put it to one side for a couple of weeks as I couldn't make my mind up how to decorate it further.
