In this altered art collage mini book, it's all in the tiniest of details!

Along with your storytelling, you will learn how to add pretty petite illustrations and layers of color, paint, and fun textures. You'll utilize vintage books to pull words and portions to create clever and unique narratives. All of this will be wrapped into a fun little BIG book of dreams!
