Fairy Tale Book Collaboration

I sometimes participate with a group that makes mini art books.  The hostess Mary Ann picks a theme and anyone interested can sign up.  Each person makes one altered page based on the theme, and then duplicates the page for the number of participants.  There usually seems to be between 20 to 30 participants.  All of the pages are sent to the hostess and she makes the cover, binds them and sends each participant a completed book with everyone's different pages.

I couldn't pass up the fairy tale book.  One of my favorites is Beauty and the Beast, so I went with that. 

The front and back of the page I made.  I tried to keep them fairly simple, I tend to over-do it sometimes, and making 20 to 30, even though you are making the same thing...takes quite a long time.

 

When I receive the completed book, I'll post more photos of everyone's pages.  Here's a link to the flickr group.

Hi Kathy,

I love your work, Beauty and the Beast is one of my favorite stories, saw the off broadway play in NY and fell in love.

You chose a wonderful fairy tale to add to this book Kathy, and your pages are, as always amazing. You put such thought and care into what you create and it always shows!

Your pages are lovely. And what a wonderful idea! How would one get involved in the mini book making?
