A positivity journal

Happy to have made something that I can share with The Mini Album Maker's Challenge!  Not shabby for a quick throw-together...

Supplies and notes:
Cover:

• Large Ranger tag inked with Broken China DOx
• Tag coated in places with Teresa Collins modeling paste through Tim's Cubes stencil
• Various Lindy's Stamp Gang Magicals added, including Cotton Candy and Frolic in the Forest Green
• Distress Paint in Spiced Marmalade and Chipped Sapphire added
• Tag folded in such a way as to accommodate a couple signatures
• Tim's wildflowers cut from library cards added using Distress Collage Medium in Matte
• Tim's metallic Quotations stickers added to the cover and spine
• Interior of cover fortified using 7 Gypsies masking tape, which is very similar to some true book-binding tape
• Vintage yellow seam binding from my stash

Interior/signatures:

• Signatures made in a very simple way: Canson mix media paper cut and laid in sets of three then sewn down the middle with the ol' sewing machine (Fig. A).  I made just two signatures, and in hindsight, this could have accommodated one or two more...
• Signatures both glued to seam binding, at either side(Fig.'s B, C, D), then a bead of glue was added in between them and pinched together to further fortify the spine(Fig. E)
• A strip of the seam binding was then added to the inside of the cover's spine and the textblock was added to the interior (Fig. F).
• Tim's metallic Quotations stickers added to each page

I'll share this with the gals at The Mini Album Makers Challenge for October's challenge.
