Snow Storm Hardcover Journal

I made this journal a couple days ago for the Trans Canada Etsy Team's February Challenge. The theme of the challenge is Snow since we still have lots of it around the country, even if it was scarce for a few days in Whistler! Visit the TCET blog to vote for your favorite item in our snow-inspired challenge (hint: pick "D"!) This journal has a white leather spine and the covers are finished with beautiful Japanese Chiyogami paper that has fine gold and silver bursts that remind me of whirling snow during a blizzard. There are 256 pages of gorgeous snow white cotton paper with torn edges.

More books and Snow

I'm still working on some of the 3-section bindings that I want to try. I really like both of these, they are so clean and tidy and simple! There are more pictures of the plum diamonds in my shop and more pictures of the distressed blue book here, the sewing pattern looks like a cityscape almost.

And this is what I'm looking at through the window of the bookbinding room this morning. No signs of spring around here.
