Hi Guys
I perform a show called the wordless book, it's just a book with color pages and Bible Betty & St Bernard tell the story of what each color page means. well instead of them telling the story I'd like to make each color pages (there are 5 pages gold, black, red, white, green) tell the story themselves (I think they would be more visually interesting. I want them to have eyes and a mouth. I thought of a thin foam and cover the back with a black cloth or maybe use a thin foamies with sticky backs. But I want them to look like pages. what do you think, any ideas.

You can have every page be a sheet of foamie, but instead of having the mouth moved from the back by your hand you can pin or glue a color rubber band for a mouth and use a fishing line to pull down the mouth. Doing it this way you can close the book and not having it bulk up. Here is pic from something similar I made. http://www.flickr.com/photos/26034793@N03/2569158931/

Hope this help.
