Altered book art

This title was very useful to a novice like myself. I would like to have seen a few more completed pages, but all in all it is a worthwhile purchase.

The Complete Idiot's Guide to Altered Art Illustrated (Complete Idiot's Guide to)

Don't you just adore Idoits books and dummy book stoo? Some cannot stand them, I find them informative, For people like myself who Know they do not know everything about every subject...but try! lol

Creativity impaired

Homebound from surgery for six weeks and unable to drive my car (or play golf) a thoughtful friend sent me this book to aid in my boredom. When it comes to arts and crafts I'm truly deficient but here was this delightful book full of ideas that even I could master. I sent my husband to the craft store for basic tools and I was on my way. Through these pages I found my creative bent. Look for yours.

Great for Getting Started

I really enjoyed this book - I started scrapbooking recently but also wanted to try making altered books. This was a great start for me because the projects were very good, but not intimidating like some of the other projects I've seen in books. I have been able to get ideas from this book that I can really use. This book has helped me get started with altering books and other items. I think it is particularly helpful for the scrapbooker who wants to try altered art.
