Please check Artsy Mama's Blog for more info on participating. She will be posting links, tutorials and encouragement on making your own "book of dreams". This came at a great time for me as I have not done much in the way of "altered" books lately. I really enjoy it so and I've been procrastinating! Anyhow, you can read about the artist who inspired this as well as lots of other interesting info by visiting Artsy Mama's blog.
I made my cover tonight and decided I would focus on a "free flow" book where I can just experiment with altered techniques and not worry about "how it's going to look" or "making it perfect". To me, that IS a dream~to create freely without worrying about all that!
I also wanted to add that I received an amazing package of goodies from Lynnette April Over the Moon Art this weekend. This is again, perfect timing as I will use some of these fun things in my book of dreams. I ordered the collage pack. I am still going through everything and I know I will be for a long time to come. I also ordered an assemblage box (my first one) called "Angels in Paris". It is absolutely beautiful and already displayed in my home. I love visiting her picturetrail for inspiration! She is pretty amazing! You must check it out!
I also traveled along blogging row this weekend and found a great tutorial on doing art journalling pages from a mixed media artist who's work I adore, Nancy Baumiller. I used her technique in my book already! She is awesome. Check out her blog as well for more info on that.
Well, I think I've done lots of art this weekend and I'll post more soon on my book of dreams. I hope you will join too! :)LK
