"Book Wisdom" Altered Board Book






Have you ever been reading a book and stumbled across a passage that just stunned you? Perhaps the language is lyrical and beautiful or the meaning just seems to touch you in some way? Well I have been writing these passages in journals for years waiting for the day that I could do something with them. I was discarding a board book with tabs at the library and really felt inspired by it. I've been working on altering it for a few weeks now and will show you the finished product over the next few days. These are scans of the front cover, the whole book and the first page.

This is a wonderful project, Heather. And so inspiring, as many of us collect quotes, too. The cover and pages are scrumptious!

From the moment the first Mercedes-Benz CLS four-door "coupe" was introduced to the public, other German luxury automakers hit the drafting board. According to the German auto experts at AutoBild, Audi is just over a year away from unleashing its own cleverly packaged sedan.
