Very basic folded book art
Very basic folded book art
I was browsing the internet last night, mainly looking through Etsy and Flicker and came across some amazing folded book art. I Googled it and found instructions for a very easy card holder that I thought would be perfect for displaying ATCs. It was super simple to make, using only a paperback book and mat board for the base.
Here it is with a few ATCs stuck in.
Of course, I couldn't stop there, so I used the same concept and made my own mini book and turned it into a little diorama. This one is very manly so I'm going to do another, more feminine one also.Sue in NC (formerly known as Sue in Colorado)

Sue this looks phenomenal. I have seen the book folds before but wasn't sure how difficult it would be what website did you use?

Oh, that is a brilliant idea! It could be used for displaying so many things in a small space. and the diorama is cool!

Wow! What a great way to repurpose an old book! I love it as a card holder, and your diorama is really cool!

This a great idea, really enjoyed the sites you posted. Loved how yours turned out. It is a really great idea for some of those old books just taking up space.

Re: Very basic folded book art
What a great idea. Nice way to display swap pieces - you could change out the art work with each swap. Or make a seasonal display and swap it out with the seasons.
Thanks for the link (and I love yours!).
