Artbooking in August - Week 1










Welcome to the first week of the CTMH Consultant's Artbooking in August Blog Hop.   You probably hopped her from Kimberly's blog.   If you keep hopping from blog to blog, you will evenutally make the complete circle. When you are finished viewing my work please hop on over to Deb's blog

For my first project, I just had to make the 8" mini book using the Kraft 3-ring binder. I cut all of the pages using the first 2 keys in the handbook.   Every image with the exception of the earth and standard rectangles were cut with the new Artbooking Cricut Cartridge.










Every day this week, I will post a close-up of each page with a detailed explanation of how I made it.  Please come back each day to learn more.

Complete list of all participants can be seen on Adeline Brill's blog.http://paperhugz.blogspot.com/2013/08/artbooking-in-august-week-1.html
