Spell Book ?

not quite, each year I keep a holiday journal and since we will be heading north of the border, a celtic feel seemed to be appropriate.

Please excuse the dodgy photos but velvet seems to confuse my camera. The finished book is sort of darker blue than the photos.





size A5

scrap challenge #2

The red scrap bag contained a lot of handmade felt offcuts which I teased together and bonded onto a sheet of acrylic felt.

I then machined straight lines to hold it all in place

I then added sequins and beads from my stash

Result, new cover for last years travel journal. ( I usually use the same cover year after year so I have several books that need covering)

Holiday Journal

As it is still raining, I used this morning to make a cover for our holiday journal. In previous years I have reused a cover made about 5 years ago but the sketchbook this year has a slightly larger hard cover so wouldn't fit. Anyway, here it is ready to be packed away ready for our next tour to Germany, Austria, Switzerland in a few weeks time
