I am using a cardboard 3 ring binder for my new Hat Journal. The first layer is using a lot of my buried treasure which was atlas pages, German blackletter, a paper towel, linen and some abandoned layout of the letter "T". To that I added a bit of drywall and masking tape. I love how random bits of paper end up with interesting words that seems like kismet! The small piece of paper at the top of the right side says "ding. Yet how much lively imagination"

Layer 2 is Gesso scraped on with a card but left a bit thicker to have the bubble wrap texture show up.


Stay tune for more layers to come. Meanwhile I prepped the inside with the Quin gold and filled in the center with Gesso and textured it with a card.

WOW!! I'm loving that outside cover already! Fantabulous! Stefan would approve.
This is looking fantastic already. I love that you have photographed the process. Taking something disintegrated and creating something new!
How very cool! I love all the random 'worn' textures!
