I love it. I made some tiny journals with coffee sleeves. They are just so fun to make. And I just love your idea for the cover, something much different then the mixed media I have used.
Hi Luisa, here is the link to my webpage where you can find two of my finished coffee-cup-sleeve journals, ^_^. The website is Dutch, but there are enough photo's to enjoy it.

@Riya Thank you so much for sharing the link! Those tiny journals are so so pretty! I love all the different textures. Your work is so cheerful! I spent a long time scrolling on your website, looking at all the different projects!
@luisavidalesreina Thank you so much for your nice comment on my website. I hope to be able to upload some new stuff very soon, there are still some projects waiting for more then a year to get finished or even started.
India ink on tissue paper. I had never used ink on this kind of paper before; I really liked the results! There are some folds and wrinkles on the paper that give the pattern some interesting details. The paper is also super absorbing, which plays nicely with the quantities of ink. Since it's very thin, there can easily be overlays between textures. And finally, when trying to use less ink (so that it wouldn't seep through and cause a big dot - the absorbing quality is nice, but it was also somewhat of a challenge!) I used very little ink on the lettering, causing a scratchy, dry look.

For day 27 I made a very diluted India ink wash and painted a cityscape at night with white ink over it. I like how it turned out! Naïve and quirky.

For the last day of Inktober, I drew a pumpkin with black india ink on orange paper. I had never done an Inktober challenge before, and I really liked it! I'm definitely doing it next year, too. I got very good ideas for new projects, I played with different textures and colours, and I used a calligraphic pen to draw, which I had never done before and which I loved.
