ID: No Sew - Slip Knot Booklet - Smiles

Since I sold one of the first Slip Knot booklets I thought I'd make another one similar as a memory... This time I'm using Smiley sayings...

It's extremely versatile if you have single page binding needs. Will also work with Signatures but you wont see as much of the stitching detail. It does need heavy cardstock or cardboard pages rather than text weight paper. The binding will probably rip the binding holes...

I used a cream toned Stonehenge paper. 

Each hole is individually bound with a 4ply Fuchsia waxed linen thread folded in half. The 2 ends inserted into the hole from the inside and then threaded through the loop to create your 1st slip knot. Ends inserted through the inside of the next page hole and threaded through the loop created. Continue to the end and tie a double knot.

Calligraphy inside done with pointed pen in a "Storybook" style using a different color of gouache sprinkled with Schminke gold powder for each saying.

Cover painted with watercolors
