Not a wildly creative day, but I did take the first step towards some wild creativity.
I started my Altered Book class today! It's online so I can do it at my pace and I paid for it. I knew that once I plunked down some hard earned cash, I would follow through. Weird how that works...
I have bought books on the topic, read articles and blog posts galore, but never actually took that leap into the world of altered books. Maybe it's because my mother always told me that books were my friends. It's always the mother's fault.
So. Step One. Work on techniques for backgrounds. I particularily like this one.

I purchased a couple of books to alter at the thrift store. This one is really riveting reading:
Successful Small Client Accounting Practice. Copywrite 1976.

I don't think it was ever opened until I cracked it open to splash paint all over it!
My favorite is the author. I'll bet he was loads of fun at a party!
