Two Gipsy Journals

I made two journals, love making journals, one is just about cats and the second one is my Garden Journal. But most about all the birds, bees and butterflies in my garden.

My journal is fat...really FAT!! It not only holds 39 folio's in 1 signature, but also a lot of fold-outs, cards and fold-ins, I dont know if that is the right word for it, but there is a lot inside this journal. The spread above is page 1(cover from watercolour paper)-2 and extra...

Page 23-24: center page. Backside gell print (copie paper) and drawing paper collaged with handpainted paper scraps (underpaper).

I absolutely love my journal, aldo I havent done much in it. But every now and then I will spend some time with one of my two journals. All that is left to do is the beading...totaly forgot that.

Next time I will upload some pages of my Cat journal...just as fat as this one I think, ^_^. Thank you so much for this fun class. I loved every minute of it.
