Vintage Circus Mini Book Swap

Open to Paper Traders members only
(sample mini book by Lynda Roddy Ozzauto)
Vintage Circus Mini Book Swap
5 for 5 page swap
Skill Level: 2- Budding
Due: October 22, 2011 (postmarked)
Hosted by: Lynda Roddy-Ozzauto

Make 5 pages (decorated front and back). Backs can be decorative paper or more artwork - just finish the backs of the pages so they’ll look nice when the book is opened. Page size is 4” wide x 3” high and should be out of something sturdy so the books will stand up accordian style. Lynda will punch holes and tie the pages together with ribbon before she sends them back to you. Please keep thicker embellishments away from the edges to leave room for binding.

Think colors, clowns, animals and popcorn! It’s a day at the circus. Vintage Style. Use any medium you’d like - paint, collage, fabric, etc. Add embellishments - ribbons, beads, tickets, tokens, etc. There are plenty of vintage images available to use - for some inspiration check out these sites: Alpha Stamps, Deviant Scrap, Art Chix Studio, Scrapgraphics

POSTAGE: Please send $3 cash or ephemera to cover cost of postage and put pages in a plastic bag inside the mailing envelope.
