  Step 1

  So first you need some wood glue to glue all the book pages together ...

• 

  Step 2

  ... to do it you need to open the book ... I haven't glued around 3-4 pages and then put a bottle on the book, so the pages will stick together in a better way.

• 

  Step 3

  To make it much better I also used a screw clamp and waited until the wood glue was dry.

• 

  Step 4

  Afterwards you draw the cutting line you want to cut the hole into the book.

• 

  Step 5

  To cut the hole I used my love scalpel, but you also can use a cutter or another knife.

• 

  Step 6

  When you cutted some pages round, you can start with bumps, hills or something else you want to cut into the book.

• 

  Step 7

  Here you can see my finished part. I cutted several hills and holes and also some clouds into the sky.

• 

  Step 8

  To color it you can use Acrylic Colors or Watercolors with some water. If you don't want to see the letters anymore, you need to use less water.

  When you are done with the color put some glue on the complete book, so the pages stick together in a better way.

  Step 9

  Now it is time for the Fimo. I built directly into the book. In this way you are sure that it will fit at the end when the fimo is baken.

• 

  Step 10

  Here you can see all parts. At this time it is also good for you to take a photo ... in this way you know where to put everything after baking.

  Now you need to be carefully to get all pieces out of the book, because it is not a good idea to bake the book into the oven.

  When you are done with baking, just glue the pieces into the book and set some highlights ...
