Hi ladies, I have just started my journey but I want to focus on keeping busy
I was given this link by the moderator and thought I would try posting here.

 Does any one here paint, scrapbook etc. as in artistic ways?   I would like to group with those who do any kind of art or even those who are interested. 

I am going to start an alterbook on my process and I think will begin on Monday to set an official date..  If you dont know what that is here is a link to get an idea.  

 Below is a very simple way to start an Altered book.

 Here is a another link to read about.

 If anyone would like to start this project with me that would be super.

1. have an old book you dont mind pasting stuff in, writing, painting punching holes, threading etc.

2. glue,  elmers glue, acrylic gel medium - can get at michaels, hobby lobby or art store.

3. cut out images or print on your computer to use in your book.  lots of little things like thread buttons, etc.  to use in it.

4. envoke your an imagination or poke it until it wakes up. LOL

please share.  if you have questions just google altered books and you will find a gazillion ways to make a book. 

Have a great weekend.
