moleskin collage

I finally got to take advantage of the scanner at work (that emails your scans!!!) so here are the better quality pictures (better than photobooth at least) of my new moleskin. Horray!



Inside front cover... card catalog envelope.



I hope you like it :)

Photobooth doesn't take great pictures but I was too excited to take a picture with a real camera, then upload it, etc. If you know me at all, then you know how amazingly fast I am with uploading pictures...

Anyway this is my finished moleskin cover. It's a collage made with a doily, lots of little magazine cutouts, a pressed flower, a page from some book and wrapping paper. After I was done collaging the hell out of it, I stamped some words over it. I think the words really help it to look unified because sometimes I can go overboard with collage. On the inside there's a library checkout envelope which I think looks pretty cool. (No picture yet)

Lets just say... I love Mod Podge.





I am debating about laminating it so nothing falls apart or gets ripped but I like the texture the Mod Podge gives... we will have to see how well it holds up.

Moleskins & Mirah

This is my decorated cover of my first moleskin sketchbook. Song lyrics by St. Vincent "the Strangers" and the pressed daffodil is from the art exhibition last semester. I'm thinking about starting another moleskin (since I have 2 more that came in the package) for my next artist book (if I ever finish the one I'm working on now...) I am going to base it off one of Mirah's songs Body Below. She really inspires me especially now since I got to see her on Saturday!!!
