A really good friend of mine just got back from spending a year in Brazil. Hung out with her today for the first time - that put a BIG smile on my face. She was looking in my bookshelf and found a diary that I'd made. It's my only attempt at bookbinding, and I wish I'd taken a picture of it before I filled it up. She liked it anyway. I figured I'd make her one just because I remembered today how much I appreciate being with her.

I guess this is the part where I blame the photo's on my digital camera, but I'm really just an awful photographer. :)





This picture is a bit dark, but this is the inside of the book anyway.


Back





Wrapped up with a bow and everything.



I used leftover paper. The paper with the feet is from a stationary set that I got at Ian Snow in Machulleth(?) a week ago, on my trip to Wales. The yellow is handmade, the black and white is pretty generic stuff that I had lying around.

The book is in A5 format.
