It's all Greek to me

I took time to create two pages in my 7 Continents altered book, what I call possibly the longest unfinished altered book I own.

This time I traveled to Greece and the Greek Isles.  I was inspired by my friend Debbie (Craftymoose) who has actually been there in person.

I made a bit of a mess with the open stapler because I had nothing I could place underneath the stapler that was strong enough to actually complete the staple process.  Another lesson learned.

Don't you just love the bells, the white architecture, and the blue ocean in the background?

Side two shows a bit of the map of Greece and the Greek Isles.  Obviously, this was taken from a travel brochure.

A couple of detail shots

show the beauty of this area.

For this two page spread, I glued several pages from my Physician's Desk Reference (PDR) together for the substrate.  To hide the PDR pages, I used a page from the travel brochure for Side one and scrapbook paper for Side two.  I used scrapbook materials gifted me by my friend Kathy for the embellishments, too.

I hope you are having as much fun on this altered journey we are taking as I am.  And I seem to be learning a few things about these countries along the way, too!
