GelliArts® + Spellbinders® : Handmade Book by Kirsten Varga

Hello! Kirsten Varga here. I am excited to share with you my project made with Gelli Arts® and Spellbinders® products- specifically the Jane Davenport line filled with luscious art making tools. 

 

One of my favorite things to make are handmade books. I like the structure and the endless possibilities they have. The handmade art journal I am sharing with you today is made from a single sheet of 18×24 paper. I starts as an accordion fold maze book but after gluing the “wrong” sides together it transforms into a perfectly bound book with thick pages ready to welcome my art and journaling. I have made a video to show you the process. 

Enjoy and happy creating!
