Here are two pages from my journal. I thoroughly enjoyed all the participants as well as the wonderful weather and beautiful natural environment in which we roamed.

I finally found the Flickr instructions on this site for how to make a decent sized image. So here goes.................

Mossgate- Hope we can see some larger versions and maybe a photo or two? You really need to show off some photos of your custom sketchbook - it was amazing!

Nikol- That hummingbird shot is incredible!

Can't wait to do this again - thanks again everyone!

Mossgate: Amazing sketch book, could you show it more up-close? Would like to see the back and how it's bound, if possible?! Did you make it yourself? Great to see your equipment too, those kind of photos one can never get enough of! :)

Great sketches too! Neat.

the basic journal design

Post by Mossgate »

For those curious about what my sketch journal looked like unwrapped, here is a photo of the original design....this photo showing my prototype design for following journals. It is now the style for my all-purpose journals.....like the one I took on the ScratchCrawl minus the "photo journal" label on the front cover.

I used 140 lb Fabriano Artistico for the pages.

Each of the three sections are sewn in separately so I can remove the pages if I wish. Easy enough to resew pages back in.
