I really like the book, I have read it through one time. I will be using a lot of her ideas. The only thing I do not care for is some of her pages are a little muddied up, but that can be fixed , when I do my pages, I will try not to have a muddy look. I will be teaching a scrapbooking , altered books at a class for children in need of personal attention.Lots of help in this book! I would buy more of her books!
Altered Art is a great way to use up all those odds and ends that you don't know what to do with but they are too cool to throw away. I love art and I love books and I have a really hard time destroying a perfectly good book to turn it into art. I got around that by going to a thrift store and buying a book about something I don't like - as in strongly don't like. It made it much easier to turn it into something else. This book, Altered Books Workshop, give many great ideas and ways to turn books into works of art.
Absolutely beautiful book with stunning designs. All of the COLOR photos made it much easier to see how the finished product should look. So many ideas were shared by the author that make your imagination go wild! I would buy more of her books. Beautifully done.
If you love collage, this is a great book for ideas and stretching your creative possibilities! Every page offered tips and plenty of how tos. Techniques are simple, and can be approached using supplies on hand or a good reason to run to a craft store. It's addictive.
I was getting together with a couple of friends to do collage which lead us to think about trying altered books. I originally got this at the library and liked it so much I wanted to own it. The explanations for using what tools and when, kinds of materials, and various techniques are great. It really is like going to a workshop. Fun!
