A Glimpse Of Me

My latest journal...

~ A Glimpse Of Me ~



*~*~*~*~*
You won’t have to face the intimidation of a BLANK PAGE to begin your journal!

The first leave in each signature have been painted and stamped with acrylic paint...waiting for YOU to make it your own.

The PAPER in this journal is 140-pound Index – this paper is PERFECT for visual journaling. You can layer acrylic paint on this paper and it will stand up to it with no wrinkling! You will LOVE this paper!
There are 5 signatures of 5 leaves each. 100 pages when using both sides.

Covers are made of 100% cotton canvas panels – Archival quality.

An original design of collage and richly layered acrylic paint.

Journal cover measures: 6” x 8”

Paper measures: 5 ½” x 7 5/8”

Exposed spine, 6-needle Coptic Binding using waxed linen thread imported from Belfast, Ireland in BLACK & VIOLET.


Coptic binding allows the journal to lie flat when open.
