The Bottom Line

What a fun product! These blank canvas books are just waiting for your creativity to stamp, glue, paint, draw, or otherwise embellish them. I think you could create unique gifts using them or personalize a book just for the fun of it. You can choose from 2 different sizes, 7" x 8" and 8 1/2" x 11". These unique products will be enjoyed by scrapbookers, altered art fans, and crafters of all ages.

Guide Review - Ready-to-Go! Blank Canvas Book

These canvas books are great for crafters of all ages! You can try your hand at altered art or use simple sewing techniques to embellish this book. You can decorate them with beads, stamps, paint, paper, fabric, and just about anything else in your craft cupboard. You can use them as a base to make special gifts, mementos, or just to release some creativity. This product would be great to use to create a soft book for young kids by stuffing the pocketed pages with batting or foam. How about cutting the pages apart and making a calendar book? There are so many creative possibilities...

You can choose from a two sizes right now, but I would not doubt that the publisher will have a larger variety to choose from soon. You can use your own creative ideas with these blank books, or be inspired by some of the ideas shared on my Altered Art and Collage Page. You might also find some inspiration in the Altered Board Book Basics and Beyond book. Finally, there is one free project idea posted on the C & T Publishing's Web site. There are so many possibilities you might want to get a half dozen of each size and get crafting!
