Etched Metal Book with Jen Crossley - DVD 
 
They say don't judge a book by its cover but when the cover is etched metal, hand stitched, and embellished with found objects you know it's going to be a good book! Jen Crossley shares her techniques for creating these fabulous etched books that are a must-have for mixed-media artists.


First you will learn how to etch metal with stamped designs. Then learn the Coptic stich to bind pages to the covers. Finish off by adding charms and found objects to make the book truly unique and something to be proud of.
