I just discovered a new source for hardback books – the dollar store! Who knew? I’m certain they’ve always been there but, it didn’t dawn on me to buy any there until recently. Their selection doesn’t seem to include anything I usually like so I guess I’ve always just walked right past that aisle. Then one day, I noticed a title by one of my favorite authors. It didn’t sound familiar so I picked it up only to discover I already owned it when I got home. What to do with the second copy now? Luckily, I love altered books. I also love printing, stamping and painting on torn out pages to use as card and scrapbooking elements. If you do too, check your local dollar store next time you need a new “canvas.”
Happy hunting,
Amanda
