Why no photo pages? I have lots of cool kids vintage books but most of them have pictures on the pages =(

Yes you remove the book pages from an book.

Do all the 10 pages have to be from different books? Or is it okay if there is more than one page from one book?

notme78 05/27/2012 #

All 10 pages can be from the same book, or it can be from different books.

muusikameli 05/27/2012 #

Okay, thank you :) Looking forward to getting my partner!

so can it be like from a magazine? i really can't ruin a book like that... /=

notme78 05/27/2012 #

No it must be a book page. A magazine is not a bookpage. Maybe try to go to a sale or a place where they sell cheap books that you don't like and then you can use the pages from that book.

Our main library in Town sells off unwanted stock (older copies, fiction that hasn't been very popular etc), I've picked up a few foreign language ones for 30p each. I use book pages as backing papers, die cut them, stamp on them.... plus you can colour them with chalk, paint, ink for different looks.

I know its hard to allow yourself to destroy a book - i can NEVER throw away a book but I've convinced myself that by repurposing other peoples unwanted ones, at least then they get to live on in my "art" :)

I have started to use book pages in my scrapbooking and card making....it is really a nice effect.
