I made this book for a swap. The rules were 6 pages front and back
all found items, you could use your own ink glue & brads but that was it.

Beautiful pages. How are you going to bind them?

they were bound by punching 3 holes. Using waxed linen thread in the holes instead of the O ring clips and then hanging fibers off of the thread to hide it.
Forgot to take a picture of it bound

the one I received was pretty sweet too.
Something about having limited supplies (If you count the 3 boxes of received stuff as limited)
Sometimes having too many options inhibits the process-for me at least

Looks fabulous, Christy! Hmmm.... maybe I should scavenge the library book sale for some "begging to be altered" books.....

That's such a great project - an idea to consider when I have time to play with my PIF stuff...

these came out terrific. I totally agree about the too many options. I once got a little packet from ArtChix from a friend and used only what was in there to make a bunch of ATCs for a swap (using my own inks etc) and it was really fun!
