Altered Book - Many Textures

"The Search for a Great Cup of Chai"

This is one of my first Altered Books ....


The front cover is done with upholstery fabric, beads and a brass Elephant ....
















These are some of the inside pages ... The first one is cork that has been stamped ... the next is a transparency that I also stamped and placed in between to pages that have a oval window cut into them ...... You might notice that I sewed the edges of the pages together ...... The 3rd page is showing that you tear pages out of the book then use them in your design as an extra element ....
