The ersatz baby journal

[wiseheart]

I mean the one I've been working on in the breaks in-between the painting insanity. It's for my goddaughter's brother, whose wife is expecting their first child - apparently also a girl - in a couple of months' time. (BTW, Baby Emma still hasn't deigned us with her appearance; the kid must have heard something about the outside word and tries to enter it as late as she could. Wise, wise girl...)

Anyway, here is the front cover. I didn't take a photo of the back cover because it's basically the same and without any decoration, save the paper ribbon at the bottom:



Followed by a few inside double pages, shown in the actual order:







These are unedited photos, for the simple reason that I forgot to edit them before posting them to Pinterest and I'm just too tired to bother with it. So the writing is a bit less sharp and the colours perhaps a tad more pale than usual (and in life), but for the moment, they have to do.

On other news, the first round of the Big Painting Job wasn't finished today. It will presumably finished tomorrow. Then we'll have a week to clear out the bedrooms (7 square metres each, packed with stuff to the edge of bursting), before the next act of horror starts. *sigh*

Oh, I like those, too. But they require at least lower brain functions that I don't always have.

I tend to do a lot of them, just because they distract me from other things.

I like them too. Alas, at the current level of exhaustion I simply fall asleep over them.

I know what you mean. *yawn*
