I do not usually win. I rarely buy raffle tickets and never lottery tickets. Why fight a proven track record...I do not win these things! Now, my brother in law, Steve....he wins all kinds of stuff, and he has managed to pass this trait on genetically to his children. Go figure.
My streak has been broken and I was the lucky winner of the art journal below! Too fun. Marie P. had a blog giveaway and arranged with Book Journals for the prize. They rebind old books, with interesting covers, into art journals. Mine has some of the original pages mixed in with blank pages. There were literally hundreds from which to choose! It was fun just to look through them all. Take a peek, if you get a chance.
......thanks Marie!
I love these types of books and journals! I would love to make some of my own. I have seen people make notebooks out of old mills & boons books. They put the cover on the front and then there is plain paper through the notebook, but they throw in a few of the steamy pages here and there for a suprise!! Leanne.
