I'm craving in Art Journaling

I'm out of town early of the week to Bangkok 

a lovely trip for attending a course and enjoy the shopping spree at evening time.

and I missed my art journaling so much 

here are few pages working on my handbook. 

Masking tape book

This is the coolest book i ever had.

 It is not bind, appeared to be what you seen in the photo.

This book is made by Ayumi Horiuchi with another 2 women.
So much great effort and time spend to produce this awesome book and you will feel the same if you have the opportunity to flip on this (handmade) book. 

The divider is made of washi paper, 

feeling the texture of washi paper before it applied with adhesives !! 

This book introduced the hows MT tapes came about, 

fews pages talked about Kurashiki (the placed Kamoi Kakoshi is located), 

ways to used MT tape, interviewing etc. 

The coolest part of this book is ... sample pages of the MT tape, 

Yes, it is the real MT tape adhere here. 

shhh........

I'm more than happy to show you my evidence journal. 

Because, I'm adding 5 more rolls of washing tape early of this year ...
