More Altered Books...

I think this is such a cool cover! I had Ben Cut the outside of the book into the shape of a moon. But only the front Cover. The Back is rounded, but the inside isn't cut out. Then I cut the inside pages at a curved angle to add more interest. It's really pretty in person. When I get my altered books ready to go, I do some of the cover, a sign in page and one spread to set the tone. I try not to go over and beyond because then I get attached to my book, and I'm always a little nervous that I won't see my books again. I have that with one round robin now...
This book is about dreams and fantasies.

This is going to be my Alphabetica book. The cover isn't much to look at, but it is purple velvet with paint at this point. The emphemera for the cover is pretty bulky, so I do that when it comes home.

Since I don't know how many people will work in this book (it's going for a few rounds) I made the sign ins pretty simple.

I think this spread is much nicer in person. There is beading all done around the edge of the left that didn't scan. And pretty glitter on the flower!
