ART DAY

Today my daughter and I made Artist Journals out of a 22" x 30" sheet of watercolor paper.  First we cut the paper into 10" strips, folded, stitched with linen thread and then painted each page with watercolors.  Later we started with images we cut from magazines to make collage borders.  Next we will continue with the collage adding pen work and lettering.  Then it will be ready for us to journal in.  The finished size is 8" x 10" and includes 16 pages.  The perfect journal to take along while you travel or go to the coffee shop.  They are so much fun to make.
