Artist's journal

I just finished creating this journal... I cut the pages, painted the cover and used a "variation of a long stitch" from Keith Smith's book to bind it.
I often tuck little things (drawings, photos...) in books that I'm reading. It is so fun to find a surprise months later when I use them again... I found my lovely, lacy skeleton leafs in Keith's book... and remembered the day my daughter found them in the park. I'm sure that they'll find a way into one of my collages soon...
