    Just for fun AB complete

    There are so many things I love about altered books.

    • The feeling of completion when I’ve filled up the all pages
    • The way they never close completely
    • The warped pages
    • The paint that got smudged onto the inside covers even though I thought I was careful
    • The colorful pages just begging to be touched

    I’m definitely going to start another “no theme” book. I love the freedom and chance to express what ever it is that I am feeling at any moment. It also gives me a great place to practice techniques and designs.

    Sail


    I decided to pull out my “just for fun” altered book to use up some scraps on my work surface.

    Well, technically, the tall ship packing tape transfer was adhered to the cabinet door. Everything else was just laying within reach both on the desk and the small drawer that I throw random small scraps into while creating. Bigger scraps go into my color coded files eventually.

    It was really fun working in an altered book again. It’s been a while…
