I am learning about Fat Books (or chunky books) they are 4x4 and original art on different themes. Can be anything...
Drawn...painted...collaged...at least what I have been seeing. And there is a really nice woman in the group that is sending newbies actual pages to show us! that is awesome! I can't wait to see one up close and get an idea of how to put mine together!
I have been sketching out idea's today for mine! The theme is "Nightmare Before Christmas" I HAD to do this one! I love that movie! And Halloween is my absolute favorite!
I am liking what I am coming up with...so I think this one will come out right. I guess you can print two on one page, apparently on card stock because you want to be able to have wear and tear for use. Front and back with your stats.
I hope this turns out better than my attempt at the Zine did! That was a flop. But my Shrine Swap worked out well...so I am hopeful! When I have a day like I did today I live in my head, and some times it pays off to be a doodler! Lots of good idea's on paper.
I just have to come up with some embellishments that will stay flat.This is an issue for me...So I am thinking of making it a pop up page. One problem/challenge...I have NEVER done a pop up before let alone a Fat book page.
OMG! I love fat books!
I love The Nightmare Before Christmas!
Why are you up north when I am down here? We need to get together and 'art around!
