Altered Board Book Creation

Last evening I said good bye to the two amazing students I had in my Making Masterpiece classes.  We had looked at famous pieces of art by famous artists.  We had incorporated design elements and techniques into each project.  This last week was a fun week to incorporate various techniques and elements into one project.  We made altered books.

I loved the work the girls created, but today I'm sharing what I made.  It is still in process and waiting to become something amazing.  This seems extra cools since it ended up with a butterfly theme!

Crinkled tissue paper modge podged onto the cover with paper butterfly, washi tape, and buttons for embellishment

Tags and washi tape on a turquoise background

Orange paint wasn't covering well, but the stencil was AMAZING!

These pages stuck together, and I thought they were ruined, but it's my favorite with the sketchbook hidden away!


The last pages are just crying out for more, but they will have to wait.



This week I continue to work on a bit of art and a poem each day of poetry month.  You can see all of those over at Brave Teachers.

What are you making this week?
