Thank you for all the wonderful tips and pointers! I have gleened much info here. I teach middle school art and always do an altered book with the kiddos that they work on throughout the semester. We use rubber cement for our incorporated text projects and it works great! They use a toothpick to mask the text they want to save, then paint a design over the top. When dry they roll the rubber cement off with a finger and voila! --- Leslie Booth
