Cut Up This Book And Create Your Own Extraordinary Places

Cut Up This Book and Create Your Own Extraordinary Places by Maria Rivans is a hands-on collage book bursting with wonderfully oddball, nostalgic imagery—made for cutting, sticking, and wandering off the page. Part craft book, part creative playground, it’s packed with visual surprises that make every spread feel like a new destination.

Inside you’ll find over 800 surreal images and a range of richly detailed backgrounds, moving from ocean depths to lunar landscapes and everything in between. Maria Rivans also shares a practical collage masterclass, finished examples for each “place,” and step-by-step tutorials that introduce new techniques without overcomplicating the fun.

Perfect for collage artists, journallers, mixed-media makers, and anyone craving screen-free creativity, travel-inspired inspiration, or a mindful weekend project. Add it to your craft shelf and start building your own extraordinary worlds, one cut-out at a time.
