New Altered Book - Maps & Travel - Round Robin

I have joined a new round robin with Altering Without Limits (AWOL) Yahoo group. I just mailed off my book today - two days late. The theme I chose was Maps & Travel. I love doing these, because you get to work in other people's books with the theme that they choose, which is always inspiring and challenging, and also you get your book back after 6 months or so, with new pages done by different artists. The other ones I have been involved in have been treasures.

Steampunk Round Robin Book

I participated in a Steam Punk Round Robin Book Swap where each person made 10 pages and submitted them to one person, who took one page from each set and bound them into a book. Each page had to incorporate a map either in the background or in the elements on the page. Later, the additional theme of steampunk was chosen. Here is my book.

The front cover was prepared by our swap hostess - I love all the dimension she used!

This close up shows some of the yummy texture and details of the cover.

She also did the inside front and back cover - and the first page of my book is my steampunk bird.

These are the inside pages, front and back. We were to have something on the back, although it did not have to be fancy at all. Most participants outdid themselves!

This is the inside back cover with a delightful pocket! This was such a fun swap. I was pretty unsure at first when the theme of steampunk was chosen, but I do really love the final results! This swap was part of the Yahoo group, Altering Without Limits (AWOL).
