After I got all of my housework out of the way,
last night & into the wee hours of the morning, and
all of this afternoon, I have been on a bookmaking frenzy.
Now that I haven't any outside art projects to work on I am
finding new ways to use my creative imagination. I took an
old vinyl 3-ringed binder and cut it down to a shape of a book
that I like working in; a tall skinny book, that is approximately
11 1/2"H x 7 1/2"W, with the pages slightly smaller in width.
I then grabbed up my supply of cardboard pieces and went
to town, cutting up all sorts of shapes to use for its pages.
I have semi-circles, triangles, 2 halves of a cross,
even a tree, & house shaped page. All that I
have left to do, is to play in my book now!
Above are images of my book, so far.
