More Information about the Class

Together we will be exploring the world of Altered Books. I will be showing you five different projects. From the five projects demonstrated, you can create one or several books of your choice for the class challenge.  I will demonstrate and explain the key features and elements which make up an altered book. I will share some great ideas which hopefully will give you inspiration to create something wonderful and totally unique.  What I love about this class is that you will learn how to create altered books which are SELLABLE.  This project class is very relaxed and you do not need to have any previous experience with altered books. This is a 'work at your own pace' class and you have access to videos and support for approximately 4 weeks after sign up.
