Following a TikTok Tutorial || A New Sketch Book

Hello, Dear Hivers! | Hola, Queridos Hivers!

Some time ago I watched a video tutorial of how to make a notebook, and since then I've been tempted to follow it, but never felt brave enough to use a bunch of paper in something I didn't know if was going to work... Until today!

First I folded several pages in halves:

Then I took a little piece of paper and pasted them to it so they stayed together:

After that I took two pieces of paperboard, trimmed them to the size of the pages, and pasted one to the first page, and the other to the last page:

Then the interesting part came: Decorate the covers!

I began with the side which for me was the front cover. I added some white paint with my fingers, so it could have a good pigmentation and also a different texture.

I had as a model the paint I made with a picture of my graduation, so, as I did that time, I proceed with the purple.

My creativity was not at its best, which is why I decided to copy the background of the painting I mentioned above, but even though I added the other details, like the watercolor drops and the lines, it still looked a little empty...

Anyway, I decided to continue with the other side of the notebook.

With this side I kinda did the same, but with another colors, and a vision of flowers lol.

As I added more and more details I started liking it more than the other side, so I decided it would be the front haha.

As you can see in the last image, I had painted the corners with pink, but since the piece of paperboard I had to put it all together in the end was black, I decided to paint them black.

Also, by seeing the emptyness of the other side of the notebook, I decided to write a significant quote. At first I made it with a marker, but I completely hated it, so I kinda fixed it with paint, et voilà.

It turned out working. The pages are still together, and are easy to handle. I would say this experiment was a total success!

What do you think? Would you try it?

Thanks For Stopping By!

Excelente, demuestras con esto que no necesariamente todo es digital! Con papel, lapices, cryones y pinturas se pueden crear cosas geniales. Saludos.

Exactamente!! Me alegra mucho que con mi trabajo haya logrado demostrar eso. Muchas gracias 🤗

It's wonderful. I love making my own journals on occasion. I'm kind of a journal junkie! It's great to make them so meaningful, with the addition of quotes and colors you love. When you pick up a journal you've made you get transported to the day you made it. I love that connection. Good work!

Hello!
Yeah, the feeling of using something you made yourself it's super satisfying, and that connection you mention it's like a reminder of "I can do anything I want". So lovely.
Thanks for this great comment! I'm glad you liked my work 🤗
