Book plate soft blue & caramel

This developed by chopping an oval image in half and sliding one half over the other and playing with the opacity so that the two halves balanced. The resulting shape had a gap in the middle and the 'book plate' idea took off. I had explained to my granddaughter what a bookplate was a few days before, when she borrowed some books to take to school for a history project, She asked me to put my name inside each book. That was when I said that we really needed bookplates to make them look smart.
