yearning in my heart

You know my favorite art thing is making books, right?

Well, okay, you're right, my favorite art thing is whatever I'm making
at the moment, but let's not quibble on such a fine Friday . . .

This isn't an altered book in that it's a book that's been altered,
because it isn't. However, it IS an altered book in that the pages
are made from small file folders, which have been altered.

Into a book.



Have you tried the Altered Pages transparencies?
ANY of the collage pages are available as transparencies.



This book features silent film star Theda Bara--that black and
white makes more sense now, doesn't it??

Have a wonderful weekend!

    Thank you! I really like the transparency window, and the butterfly transparencies inside kind of have a glow about them. It's a pretty effect.

    Oooh, I like this one. How did you put the file folders together? I've been staring at a stack of folders trying to think of something to do with them....

    Hi, Angie! I made hinges from textured black cardstock, and adhered the pages to those.

    PS, Angie--I can't figure out how to contact you through your id link, sorry about that. Did we go to high school together?

    This one is simply spectacular, the black and white makes it! We can make a kit using transparencies and the wonderful G45 Arched windows we have in stock!

    Love the butterfly transparencies. I had no idea you could order images as transparencies. Makes for an interesting and mysterious look.
