arts and crafts sunday: finished making my journal 👍

#this is NOT what i had envisioned LOL id thought the cover would be messier like junk journal patchwork kind of thing but i didn't rly have #the right sorts of fabric and it was too much of a headache deciding how to make it look SO i just used some pink satin i already had and #went for a simpler look . 10 year old girl ballerina core maybe #i should have tested how satin would glue first lol because it is very uneven and there are like raised bits around the sewing #(i sewed decorative squiggles across the fabric first) #i will maybe add a pocket envelope thingy inside the cover but i want to find some nice paper first #in those last 2 pics you can see the boards for the cover n spine #whenever i make books i usually use the cardboard backing from pads of watercolour paper i use lol.hashtag reuse and recycle #anyway .hopefully i wont like use a few pages and then abandon it. im envisioning doing collages in it and stuff because sometimes #its good to just cut and stick like you're in primary school again.
