New Journal Pages & Mini Book

I've completed a few more doll journal pages. Lately, each of my art journal pages includes one of my hand drawn Paige dolls.

I hope to scan these pages and turn them into greeting cards or tags or maybe notebook covers.

I scanned one of my journal pages and reduced it in size to 2.5" x 4" and made a cover to this mini book.

It's a cute little book that I can art journal in. The inside pages are actually index cards covered with used back drop paper and journal pages.

Here's a few photos of how it started.

Cut out three pieces of heavy cardboard.

 Cover each piece with paper.

And glue together. 

On another note, I had this piece of card board scrap that I decided to paint on...

Sometimes items you just play around with, turn out to be something worth saving. I found that drawing flowers with your non-dominant hand makes for the best art work.

And last, but not least, our team won in the company Gingerbread house contest, for Best Originality. We made a miniature version of the flag ship William Sonoma store on Union Street, San Francisco. 

Here's what the real store looks like...

I also won this year's annual cookie contest, Peanut Butter Crunch Bars...yippee! Sorry, I forgot to take a picture. But I'll make them again for our family xmas party and will take a picture and share the recipe.

Have a great week!
