I really love your emails, thank you!! After I posted about Brooke's book, I got a few responses from readers interested in Father's day/tribute books. It was a pleasant surprise and I had a lot of fun making something special and memorable for the men in these ladies' lives. Two of the books I bound were tribute books with printed text from family members and friends. I can't tell you enough how much I love this idea. Funny, Marissa and Audrey both wanted the cork/leather combination. I don't blame them, if you could feel the cork and leather materials, you'd just drool. I love how yummy these books turned out. In addition to making the custom tribute books for Marissa and Audrey, I also made a blank journal for a fellow blogger, Pattie. I love the checked paper and I've got a huge soft spot in my heart for the Coptic bind. The stitching is just so beautiful and theraputic. It's also perfect for a pass-around book because the pages lay flat, perfect for writing in. Have I told you how much I love bookbinding?!? I got a year's supply of PVA in the mail yesterday along with some beautiful paper from paper-source, so off I go to make some more books!!
