I mentioned in a previous post that I was participating in a journal exchange with 6 of my wonderful and talented 'muses'. The journals have now returned to their respective owners. Was a great project to be a part of. I did a lot of experimenting with materials and techniques. Was always exciting to receive the new journals, but also a challenge. How would I interpret the individual themes that were chosen by my friends, what materials would/could be used? So many choices!! Some ideas came immediately, others longer! Most journals took a couple of weeks to complete. I incorporated lots of different elements - flaps, tags, mini books and pockets to name a few. I have posted photos of the final 5 journals below. Apologies for some of the picture quality. A few pages were hard to scan with all the elements on them! Hope you enjoy them.
