In 2004, she began her first year-long daily art project, which was making a miniature book every day. She has continued making daily art ever since. While she was always gluing, sewing, writing, or painting something, Cheryl Prater started scrapbooking in 1996. She began experimenting with collage and altered books iafter discovering and being greatly inspired by Cloth Paper Scissors magazine.
