COMPLETION OF WORKSHOP

My workshop at the weekend to make a clam shell box was very interesting with all the measurements to fit around my book.  My cover paper was only A4 size therefore not quite big enough for my small box on all sides. I had to glue the papers together but it is a first attempt , if I do another I will make paper large enough to cover entirely.

 My book within the box. I have used book cloth to line the inside and two different but similar papers on the outside. I did go wrong with the measurements for the top cover as it is too deep.  I'm not sure if I will attempt another one.
Coke Pens - I was reminded of these pens by my friends blog, which we first came across at an Amanda Hyslop day. I had a small tonic water can in the recycling and found it was ideal to make 4 pens.  My afternoon will now be to practice using them in a sketch book.

Maybe I should have the can design on the inside of the pens?

    Well done with the Cola Pens. I must remember to take one of mine to printing this afternoon as Sue asked about them. Great fun to draw and write with. I like the outside of the can showing too.
