Remember the paper that Jellyfish and I made here? Well, I've been wanting to try my hand at book binding for a while now, so when I started thinking about what to do with some of the paper that we made - the thought emerged - Book binding! I asked J if he wanted me to make some into a book, and told him that he could add other pages if he liked. The answer was affirmative. Here is the result.
The cover was a scrap of cardboard from my teaching days... we were rummaging through a pile of card when J pounced on this one.
For more creativeness you know where to go.
great idea, i love the colours of your papers
