New collages in my Mini Art Journal

These are the last new collages in this art journal. I will be making a new one with a different binding since I want to continue this practice.

Mini Journal - Coptic and French Link Stitches

This mini journal was made for a friend's birthday. I used the traditional Coptic and French Link binding method instead of SeaLemon's version that I used here and here. Since this journal is small (3" x 4"), I wasn't concerned about the cover and signatures not being structurally stable. 

I'm in a bookbinding/journal making zone lately and I'm loving it!

I started creating in this journal this week seeing that my Camo Art Journal is completely filled. Since I have been mostly working at home since the quarantine, I have been taking my 30 minutes lunch break to work in my journals. Here are the completed collages created this week:

Mini Art Journal

How's everyone today?

I was inspired to create this small art journal after watching  Nik the Booksmith recent YouTube video on making mini books.

I have a large stack of 6"x4" drawing paper scraps that's leftover from another project that I want to use up. Last year I was on a bit of no buy but now I'm on a strict no buy for awhile. I want to use up the supplies I have on hand.

This art journal is 3"x4"x7/8" with 10 signatures, 2 folios/8 pages - front & back per signature. Commercial fabric scrap was used for the cover. A scrap of red sari ribbon was used for the closure.

I'm planning on using this art journal in the same way as my Camo art journal as a place to unload paint from my brush, test markers to make sure there was ink left and to write notes. Once every page is marked then I'll go back in and create collages.

Stay safe and healthy, my friends.
