Finally, I've finished my Christmas crafting and baking. Now I can turn my thoughts to the New Year and my.... SIXTY-FIFTH birthday! January 4th. And I'm celebrating this year with a few gift aways. I have several items in mind and will be listing them in the next few days.
Today, I'm starting by giving away one of my hand-made spiral journals.
This sweet journal is approximately 4.5 x 5 inches, the chipboard front and back are covered with paste papers I made last October in Oregon. (See old post.)
Heavy weight art paper inside will support light washes, pencils, and most drawing tools.

I'll be choosing randomly on my birthday
(Jan 4th) and will mail packages that day. (Of course I'll include some random goodies too!)

And when someone breaks our Wings,

We are Flexible like that.

Happy Birthday Chris, a few days early. Thanks for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteI love this journal. I have done paste paper in the past. Funny, we always called it finger painting in the early grade school years.
Wow, what a pretty journal! I hope one day I'll find out how to make one since Moleskins are no fun anymore to buy...
