The Art Happens Board Book
Here’s a fun one I did, also for the board book feature at Scrap Village. I took an 8x8 board book and cut it down to 8x3 inches. The inside is really very simple. I used photos that spanned the two page spreads, Basic Grey Romani papers and rub ons, black ink and some rockin’ stamps from Catslife Press. This album is very simple and came together quite quickly. And, yes, Maggie was fast asleep when she got her face painted in Monterey!
A quick tip: Board books get fatter as you add more decoration to the pages. To train mine to stay closed (or at least more closed than wide open) I used a few medium sized clamps to hold the books closed for a few days. Now they maintain their shape on their own.
Thanks for looking!
