For the HA 'website' challenge, and also for joining a challenge at 2Peas, 'Thinking Inking Class Week 5'.
I was so inspired from the card at the Techniques Article section:
Many Enhance your projects with a bit of flair! by Shari Carroll .
I've been adoring the one at the bottom most.
So I tried to make like that image to use a piece of Tim Holtz fragment using Rubs-on resisting technique that I learned from Jennifer's class at 2Peas this week.
After my image was finished, I decided to make it for my notebook.
*I used several alcohol ink techniques for this.
stamp used:
HA SE: Artistic Windows / S5041 (The manuscript stamp on a paper flower.)
HA Clear design Friends / CL351 (I use only the word 'inspire' from the sentiment 'You inspire me')

Fungus Workshop Leather Craft
I learned leather craft from a few books but I felt kind of lonely just doing things I like all by myself. Thanks to Bubi Au Yeung, a figurine artist, who told me about Fungus Workshop, so I signed up for a beginner's class, two lessons passed and I got to know stuffs I didn't learn from books, plus knowing these passionate people who enjoy life and craft genuinely, which is kind of rare in a city like Hong Kong.
Each classmate choose what he/she would like to do from a bunch of samples. I chose to do something in the line of stationery (later I will do a camera/laptop messenger bag). Their template was a notebook cover, but I decided to make it a GTD index card holder. After finishing it, I decided to add a notebook for note taking and an antique key to nostalgize the whole thing.
For all leather projects I did, improvisation in the last minute seems to add beautiful touches to a plain project. As you can see, the enclosure here doesn't wrap the back of the cover to the front, instead it leaves the back wide open so I can dangle the whole notebook or even hook it up to my messenger bag.
Instead of a Moleskine notebook, I put a Rhodia notebook inside just because of its bright orange color, to lighten up a bit. However, I hate the fact that the PU cover of Rhodia discolored after just 6 months from my acquisition of it. In addition, it just doesn't lie flat like a Moleskine does when opened. Anyhow, the discoloration did added the raw and battered look I like.
For those of you who are in Hong Kong and hunger for leather craft, I highly recommend Fungus Workshop. Hoiming and Baldwin, Grace and Philip, all four are friendly souls you can chat with and learn from. I am so happy Hong Kong is catching up with Japan and Taiwan in leather crafting. Keep it up Fungus!

Terrier motif printed on a design classic Moleskine Cahier Pocket Notebook.
The image was printed using a Gocco, a tabletop Japanese screen printing system. Inky blobs and smudges are part of the process :)
This is Tanzo's Carnet notebook cover. The leather "Buttero" from Italy is vegitable-tanned. There are ten colors - grey, vandyke, dark brown, purple, dark green, yellow, orange, peach, red, beige - for you to choose and mine is peach.
It has four strings, so you can change your notebooks easily. I inserted three Banditapple Carnet notebooks, Midori's business card file and zipper case.

Painted Traveler's Notebook, A4. A5 and Reguslar size ...
flying in the face of stormy weathers, coming through heavy waters and emerging as a figure of beauty on the other side
Checking out the local art supply store, Racine's, in Fort Bragg (crappy service, by the way), I passed this rack of Moleskine goodness. Since it was my birthday, the better half was on it right away, adding some new additions to my stash.
This notebook is made from felt and was hand embroidered from a pattern drawn by myself.

- My little notebook I always carry around. I write down movies I want to see, music I want to download, books I want to read, quotes and much more in it.
- My gratitude-diary. I've seen this on Oprah. Every day you have to write down (at least) 5 things you are grateful for that day. She said it would change your life/the way you see your life. I believe it can.
