As mentioned, I'm participating in the Sketchbook Project again this year. I hope to attend one of the travelling shows this year - I was thrilled to hear that the show will be coming to Canada this time.
I was tempted to choose "open" theme - so easy to make pretty pictures! But this year I decided to pick a theme instead. I chose "In 10 Minutes", and frankly I've been struggling with it. My fallback position was to make each page in 10 minutes or less (more pretty pictures - yeah!), but I knew that wasn't really what I wanted to do, so I've buckled down and managed to get a good start on it over the weekend. You will just have to wait and see how the theme takes shape because although a good part of it is in my head (and some even down on paper), most of it is continuing to gel.
Here's the cover. This is what it looks like open.

When the book is closed you'll just see this from the front:

And this is the first page on the inside. During the coming weeks (yes "weeks", not months - yikes!) I'll be showing you the bingo cards only before they get glued into the book as they're much easier to scan flat. I just wanted to show what the pages will look like assembled. I used the same background stamp on each page that will frame my collages.

You can find out more about the dates and locations of the tour here. There will be thousands of books on display again at 12 locations throughout North America.
