A New Kind of Journal Cover Part 2

Dear Liza,

My fabric-and-tissue project with Ruthie Inman continued once the first side dried, as I laid down the reverse side. I used the same technique of watered down glue and layers of napkins. I stayed with the pastel flower-y color scheme.

After a few layers, I laid in the flowers and let the whole thing dry, using the cooling rack as before so it didn’t stick to the mat.

Once it was completely dry, I followed Ruth’s direction and gently folded the thing in half. I also gave it a trim so the edges look nice.

Now we just need to make some pages! That will happen next week.

Love,

Grandma Judy
