Altered Board Book

I just love altering books! Especially doing art journals in altered books. Today, I show you how to begin altering a children's board book. Just sand the pages down to remove the plastic film (in a well ventilated area) - then using Mod Podge matte, lay down some thin book pages and allow to dry. Then it's a matter of playing with layers, letting each layer dry thoroughly. In this episode, I run out of texture paste and make my own - so easy to do. Here is the link to my recipe and video on making your own texture paste if you'd like to. The artist that inspired me to try this is LorriMarie Jenkins and here is the link to her Altered Board Book series videos https://youtu.be/xoVmFjbbJ4Y?si=dAAacUQTMCmWYz1b My Texture Paste Two Recipes Video https://youtu.be/ijJn5ySxTQ4?si=K0DiKzaM1EN02qLy
