Completed house book
Based upon the article, House Books, by Leilani Pierson, in the Nov/Dec 2008 issue of Cloth Paper Scissors. I decided to use some of the papers that I collected on our trip to Italy, and collage them over maps of the region. The green fiber ties were from an Italian gift from our daughter.
Materials
Reverse side of each page
Front side of each page
Very cool! I was thinking of doing some kind of page with maps and Florida and the school I was teaching at.. why not do an entire book..?
That “house” technique is fantastic!l!
Love this idea …. I love using maps and music for background and focal points … Linda F
Thanks guys! I want to make sure Leilani Pierson gets the credit for the idea…it was such a great way to “house” my Italy papers
