Mother's Day Journals

Mother's Day Journals

I made the larger two journals with hand-marbled papers.* The Blue book has hand-marbled endpapers, as you can see in the next picture. I used the same artist's paper on the cover of the cream/multi-colored journal. The really nice thing about these is that they lie flat and stay opened when you want them to! They're great for note-taking, for copywork, and for sketching all those lovely spring wildflowers. I'd like to stock and use different colored threads, next time I can shop for more supplies.
