moleskine notebooks

mohl-a-skeen-a

I guess that's how you say it

but in my mind it will always be

mole-skin

and I imagine a cute little mole just gotten out of the bathtub

wish out loud

I love the colors they come in .... I turned this little green one into a wish list keeper

dream in the daytime

and this little pink one is for keeping a bucket list ... but hey, a shopping list works too

... these are mini ...

only 2.5 X 4 inches

I painted the cover designs with white acrylic paint

and then added a protective acrylic coat

the sleeve I made out of watercolor paper and used paint for the title

the designs I had already noodled out on rocks ages ago

I just transferred the designs onto something flat and colorful

(and perhaps more useful than a rock)

Cyndee Starr at Eloise's Collage has been doodling on notebooks

I think she got the wheels turning in my own head for this idea

thanks Cyndee!
