Inspiration....

I've been reading (lots) and soaking up some inspiration.....while eating... before sleeping....while walking (and almost crashing into a lamp post)... so you can tell these books are pretty cool...

1. "How to Make Books" by Esther K. Smith 2. "Magic Books & PaperToys" by Esther K. Smith - this woman teaches bookmaking in the U.S....wish I could attend a class...
3. Sew Somerset - Winter 2009 - This project is a Mermaid Tail album by Patricia Winter - it's teal!!! love love love the textures!
4. Somerset Workshop - Autumn 2008 (comes with step by step instructions!!!) - This super unique project is by Jill Marie Shulse. (love how she altered the photos!)
So, here's hoping some of this inspiration rubs off onto my next batch of classes eh? Maybe a teal-coloured mermaid-themed magic bookbinding project with altered photos and papertoys inside?!!! - TIME TO GET ARTSY!!!!

p.s. all titles available at Laine's (I think) and Papermarket (for sure).
