Venice 2014

here are a few photos of my travel journal for the trip I want to take to venice in 2014.  this is my ticket to venice journal for the on-line class that mary ann moss taught - 
great class with all kinds of videos!!


i used a vintage photo album cover  - which i cut in half and then created a spine for


folded over - bones of the journal


here are six signatures - i ended up only using 5 and kind of rearranged them just a bit



half way through my diamond stitch binding


journal fully bound and fanned out - yeah!!



the cover



inside one of the signatures


painted page in one of the five signatures



recycled calendar page and some scrapbook paper

i will finish up tomorrow by making the closure and filling the pockets with ephemera to put in the journal when i take my trip...  feels good to have this put together.

i'll show a few more photos when it's all prepped for the trip :-)

ciao for now babies,
