This is nothing new... well, except for the Zutter. I have made sketchbooks/art journals for years, all kinds and methods. There are many posts about handmade books on this blog. I have a longstanding fascination with bookmaking and with creating content for these books.
I started working in my new journal. I'm not formally participating in the #yearofcollage but wanted this book to be a collage journal. Making pages, posting them to IG, creating little collages to go on my pages, cutting up old watercolor paintings, making more pages.
Armed with the new Zutter toy, I made a second journal for a librarian friend of mine who is so, so generous and lets me know when she has damaged books that are headed to the landfill. I really love giving a library's leftovers new life!
Well, you know where this is going. I'm having so much fun making journals that I can't stop. And I've gotten lots of interest through Instagram -- you can visit my Instagram page and my Etsy shop to see many more photos of the individual journals for sale. Both links are in the column to the right.
