Small books made from gelli prints on card stock
6.25 x 3.125 inches

The bookbinding lesson from the April module of A Year of Gelatin Printing uses manilla shipping tags or card stock. These are 3.125 x 6.25 inches, but could be any size. I’ve printed these on the gelli plate with stamps and texture plates. I’m continuing to learn more about how different materials and paints work. At this stage, I’m accumulating samples rather than focusing on content.

    I love these little books; they are beautiful. Do any have blank pages inside? if yes, how many? If no, are they only folded gel print samples? If they had blank papers inside, they would make beautiful notebooks.

      I did not put any blank pages in these books, but the same binding technique could be used for some (or all) blank pages.
