I'm taking part in Uschi's travelling journal project.
My journal has been made from an old book cover with a new Coptic stitch bound text block.
The text block is made from mixed media paper with a few pages from the original book added in.
A bit of masking tape and my first page has a pocket for holding bits and pieces
( I went to see The Barber of Seville at the Opera House on Saturday. Yes,that was me tearing along the Opera House walk in The Dress and my big black boots,hair flying - sorry if I nearly knocked you over but I was running very, very late. I made it just in time. But only just!)

I can't wait to receive your journal!! Mine is really boring - I just bought a Moleskine Sketch book - hopefully it won't cost too much to post! I must admit to only buying it today so have a few days of July to catch up on!!! I am not sure how to start having never kept a "creative" journal before!!
