A New Project!!

 Meet the Blank Art Journal, with the BCID 671-12112021 on bookcrossing

 Right now, it's blank.  This is going to be sent out through the mail art community for people to doodle in, paint, write and generally play with.
(there's a pocket on the inside front and back covers to stash stuff in, although I may put an old Library Card in the front one for people to check in & out when they receive/pass on)

 The larger sheets are pulp paper which, when painted on, the colour will seep through to the other side.  Fellow artists hopefully won't be bothered by that.  

 The smaller sheets are Khadi paper, sized, and suitable for watercolour washes and pen & ink doodling.

Pulp paper is kinda scrunchy in places.  You can stitch fabric and buttons on it too.
I have some interest in this bookcrossing art journal already but if you'd like to join in, then sign up here.
I'll make another blog when the book has been finished so you can all see the final product.
I hope to send out a little "thank you" to all that take part.

I've already announced this on Beanie's blog and also on Beanie's facebook wall, and so long as you've left a comment on one of those forums, you will be counted as taking part!!
