    Default Altered Books

    Any stampers here into Altered Books or Artist Trading cards?

    mrsengeseth is working on an altered book. I haven't gotten around to trying those yet. I know that another member was working on one as well, but she hasn't been on in a while.

    Are you doing one?

    I have been working on one for quite awhile now, but have stalled out on it. I am doing it with a plan for it to reflect the family vacation we took a while back.

    Default Great!

    Nice to see someone trying it.
    Done quite a few and belong to the ISABA (International
    Society of Altered Book Artists)
    Was stamping for so long... wanted to take it down another road. So now do books, trading cards, greeting cards, altered art, all different things!
    Makes it interesting.
    The only thing I don't do is scrapping.

    That was interesting, SaraNoel. I have a few books put aside to alter, but haven't gotten around to doing it. Hmmm, I feel a project coming on...
