Inside my altered book


Cindy Tonkin - December 20, 2016

Anna gave me this old book design award catalogue. The pages were such a lovely blue, and there were tiny birds in it. I started altering it early 2016.

I used these techniques:

  • Circle hole punch and just plain cutting
  • paper tape / washi tape
  • colouring in with felt-tipped markers (mostly chocolate brown)
  • collaging elements: laser cut letters, numbers and shapes, tissue paper

So today I made a video of every page (way faster than doing a photo of every page).

Here it is.

And some stills
