AEDM Challenge day 1


For the challenge AEDM day 1 I finished making up these 2 journals both are from paintings from Julie and Chris's texture town assignment. The books measure 51/2 x 7 1/2
3 signatures. 30 plus pages
I added a few extra pages in case the special someone who takes these books wants to work in paint the day, they will need to glue a couple of sheets together. The paper is 50# drawing weight. Perfect for anything not wet.

I did them up in the Coptic stitch which allows a book to lay flatter than most...here is one book open.



This is the edge of the book to show my binding for the both of them.
I did the fronts and the back of each book at the same time so they would resemble each other.
Did YOU art today???
