Making the #Blogfest Deadline

So I was challenged this month to take part in a blog soiree of sorts, and to blog every day. Since I was tapped on the writing from yesterdays post, and I need some stock in my store, I decided to make a new book to post and have been stitching away to make the deadline for today.

This is a hard bound Coptic stitch journal. The covers are made from a marble vintage book, and are 5″ x 8″. It has 140 pages of blank medium weight newsprint, great for any sketch artist or avid creative journal. I will be adding it to my store soon, so if you would like it for yourself, be sure to keep your eyes open!

Continuing the adventure,

#Livescribe in Wonderland

This is my latest Livescribe creation. I took my own journal and re covered it with this vintage cover from Lewis Carrolls Alice in Wonderland. I love the exterior with the white rabbits, and on the interior covers are illustrations from the story. You can see on the inside of the front cover where I wrote my name in the book in second grade when the Lady first bought it for me.

I also came across one of my own illustrations in the journal while I was rebinding it. I decided to give it a little extra punch, so I made a pdf of the image from my Livescribe desktop application and then used Gimp Shop to add some extra touches. I like how the white writing really pops against the pink background.

Also, if you want to get a Livescribe pen of your own, I found a coupon for you!:
