This is a US swap. 1 partner, 1 page suitable for a glue book, 4-x6 inches in size. Nice, neat and not chunky! Theme is St Patricks Day/Irish/Shamrocks or any combination thereof:) - please make everything seasonally appropriate! What is a glue book and what is a glue book page? A gluebook is typically a bound notebook filled with a collection of paper ephemera, glued onto the page using a glue or gluestick. Glued objects turn into a collage, and so a gluebook is a collection of collages. It's a little different than a journal as typically very little writing is done in a gluebook) and it's different than a junk journal as very few junk journal embellishments such as tuck spots, pockets, bands, etc. It's more like a smash book or a glorified collage book. So you will make a 4x6 page that you have painted, stamped, stenciled and mostly collaged in the theme of shamrocks/St Pats. Orient your work so the long side is up and down. Please make it neat and not chunky as it is designed to be glued into a journal. Typically a page will have a unified theme. The beauty of a glue book is that they are collections of art from other people. If you are on Instagram, post a pic with the hashtag cpgswap. |
