Easy way to make a piece of art out of an old book. Are You My Mother was my favorite book as a child and I kept it to read to my children. The cover fell off and the pages were messy so turning it into art was a great idea for me to keep it.

Put a layer of glue down. You do not want it to be to thick it will make the paper bubble up. Then lay on your pictures and put a layer of glue on top.
