I thought you might be interested in seeing part of the process in making an eight spread mini-journal. After folding the watercolor paper I adhered washi tape in the valley folds of the accordion. I then adhered found papers from magazines and papers that I have collected. The first image below shows the adhered papers before I cut them down to the size of the watercolor paper accordion.
I kind of did an assembly line production. Now I have eight more mini-journals that I can work in. That means a lot of work but I am so motivated to work in the minis. I guess you will be seeing a lot more.
Happy Thanksgiving! :-)

This is fascinating. Please explain a bit more about the sequence. And is the tape purely aesthetic or functional on the valley folds?
Thanks for sharing this! I love seeing these what a wonderful variety.
Happy thanksgiving...
