Make the most of a bad thing

The main problem with printing on the laser printer was the fact that the ink cracked when I folded it...so I had quite crisp pages...with a cracked line down the middle etc.

After thinking some more and taking into account the nature of the quotes, I thought 'why not make it look like it should be like that' - this could have been a massive failure, but it was worth a try.

So I folded, crumbled and screwed up the paper and actually...I think it works quite well!
Seen as the quotes are somewhat narrating the break up...which can be a 'distressing' time, now the piece looks distressed instead of having perfect printing for a not so perfect sentence.









I'm actually happy with it - so I'm happy to show my face at the book fair!
