\nAnd so I decided to do something a bit like it…<\/p>\n
I would LOVE to make Nout a little book (not an e-book like this lady does,
\nbut a mini-album just for him) with advice and good wishes when he turns 18.
\nAdvice that he can take with him while stepping into a new life phase,
\ngood wishes and nice words to look at when he grows older, that he can
\nre-read when he feels lonely or in pain.\u00a0 A sweet little album filled with words
\nfrom all over the world…
\nWhat would YOU say to a young adult?
\nWhat wishes do you have for him on his eighteenth birthday?
\nWhat is your best advice for Nout as he leaves home and ventures into
\nthe world? Or maybe you like to say something in a layout – create a page?<\/p>\n
If you like to participate, please e-mail me your contribution (words or image) You can e-mail me by clicking on the “mail me” button on the right (menu bar)<\/p>\n edit 5\/26<\/strong> ..<\/p>\n On to my weekly journal<\/strong>. As you can see, Nout took three exams last week and they ALL went well! ..<\/p>\n Tangled<\/strong><\/p>\n I started working on I don’t know where ..<\/p>\n There are not many men working in the scrapbooking or art journaling field, ..<\/p>\n Last Friday, the new DT from “Scrapbooking from the Inside Out” was ..<\/p>\n Off to have me another cup of coffee now before I go work on the workshop
\nSubmit it before JULY 1st<\/strong><\/span> with the subject line “ADVICE TO NOUT<\/strong><\/span>” and be
\nsure to sign it, letting me know how to attribute it to you. (name, place &
\ncountry)<\/p>\n
\nAfter a question about the seize I decided to make a 6 x 6 inch album
\n(15 x 15 cm). I will bind it with rings or a book binding technique, but I will
\nmake an extra strip on the page to bind it so if you’re planning to make a page
\nyou can use the complete 6 x 6 surface. You can send a photo\/digi or if you
\nwant to send the original, mail me for my adress. (mail should be here before
\nJuly 1st!) I will write or print the quotes you send to put on the pages and I will
\nadd envelopes to the book to put longer “letters” in.
\nIf there are any questions left shoot me an e-mail!<\/span><\/p>\n
\nHere’s the page from last week.
\nI still don’t know what to think of the colour… it’s kinda harsh
\nI might do a sea-blue page this week and see how that turns out.<\/p>\n
\nFour more to go (Mathematics this afternoon, keep your fingers crossed!)<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.maritspaperworld.com\/old-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/01_week_201.jpg\" "\\"01_week_201\\"")

\nprompt yesterday
\nevening. The word
\nis “tangled” and the
\npage isn’t finished
\nyet, but I show you
\na sneak peek.<\/p>\n
\nthis page will end –
\nit kind of “leads me”
\n– but I do feel it’s
\nnot finished yet.
\nWe’ll see where
\nit take me…<\/p>\n
\nso I was surprised to find a new link to a couple of men that show amazing
\nart journals!!! Eric and David just published a book, which you can win on
\nSeth’s blog (hop on over to The Altered Page<\/a> if you like to be in the draw!)
\nand it was through Seth that I found these guys.
\nTheir work is gorgeous and very inspiring!
\nHere’s a link to their website: Journal Fodder Junkies<\/a><\/p>\n
\nannounced. I didn’t make it but I’m sure new opportunities will arise.
\nIn fact, something emerges on the horizon right now!
\nI can’t say anything about it yet but if all goes well, I will have a big
\nannouncement to make in the near future!!!<\/p>\n
\nlessons some more. Yep, still not done. I will be finished in about two weeks.
\nPlease forgive me for not (much) visiting your blogs in between – I will spend
\ntime on all of your blogs next Month!<\/p>\n
