I am glad I wrote about the Sketchbook Project 2012 earlier today because it got me going in a direction I needed to. The first step for me in creating anything is to make myself start, and that is exactly what I did what I did today. I committed to removing the pages in my sketchbook and putting them together to create longer pages.

The staples are easy to take out.

The pages are all removed!

I got this fabric tape from Cute Tape

It is fabric - all cotton - very thin & flexible - and sticky!

This is how I decided my pages would fold -valley/mountain.

The tape worked well. 

I'll be back with what I have done to the cover so far . . . off to visit with my mom. I am really happy and excited I have jumped in and started this, because no matter what I do, I will now be doing something art-related and working towards my goal of participating in this project! 

yours creatively, lenna
