YTPC: Glue Book Page Series: January/Winter

Dear swappers,

PLEASE NOTE: PAGES ARE NOT TO BE FOLDED FOR MAILING; MAIL UNDER 10" DOES NOT UPCHARGE.

This is the third in a series of pages we can glue in a composition book to create a glue book. When finished, your book will contain the work of many swappers! When you receive a page from your partner, glue it on top of a page on the RIGHT side of your composition book, leaving a blank page on the LEFT for writing. Or . . . do the reverse; glue your pages on the LEFT and leave the RIGHT side for writing! You MIGHT want to double the sheets for added stability.

What's a glue book page? Basically, it's a FLAT collaged page (no dimensional elements). HERE is a tutorial by joie de fi with excellent examples.

The page you create should measure: 7" x 9" This will fit PERFECTLY (with very small blank margins) onto the pages of a standard composition book.

Each swap will have a theme and the theme for this swap is: January/Winter! You may interpret the theme in any way you choose. If you don't get snow or cold weather where you live, interpret winter in your own special way--you might have holiday lights on a cactus! Remember to sign your page on the bottom right where it will become part of your partner's glue book journal!

Please use a paper base more sturdy than printer paper--especially if you're going to be using paint. Purchased cardstock should be fine.

I'll be listing one of these per month--each month will have a different theme. Hope you'll join them all!
