…so I’m working on a project for an upcoming hybrid class and thought I would post some of it here as it goes along…it’s about everyday life and a quote from the movie Titanic comes to mind - making everyday count (something like that, anyway):

Here it is - the beginning - Everyday: 5×7 Hybrid Book

Supplies to start; acrylic sheet, chipboard/cardboard (those paper sheets that sometimes come with paper at the scrapbook store, transparencies, printer, inkpad, digital papers and brushes, scrap papers. Main font used: steelfish.

This is just a quick view of the pile of papers as it sits now - undecorated, and just the beginning.

Themes in book to start:

observe

play

I’m using scraps and ephemera - I’ve ripped a piece of paper from an old book, cut it down to size and attached it to photo in front of this one.

For each photo - there’s a transparency with a word to describe the photo and journaling on the opposite page - this is in the play section. (Note: words need to be flipped to print on inkjet transparencies).

For the computer part of it all - I’ve create a 5×7 document to save everything in and print from - quotes, paper, words.

Digital products used in m y book: Gaia Paper Pack and Defined Brush Set by Michelle (Little Dreamer Designs).

Paper products: Fancy Pants Papers and Journal cards.

…
More to come…have a good night.
