NewsletterJournal Sketchbook Giveaway
Hello dearies!
Since I have no purpose for the journals I made I thought I would give them away to my lovely blog readers. Anyone need a journal sketchbook for some art making? I used materials I have lying around the house, so there might be wear and tear on the corners, but otherwise all blank pages ready for your creativity. Check out my post yesterday for more pictures and details. There are two up for grabs…I’ll send them anywhere in the world.
Just comment below saying which one you want. Or if either one is okay just say that and you’ll be put in both groups for the random drawing next week. Enjoy!
GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED
Posted on February 17, 2010 at 6:41 pm | bookbinding, free goodies
Hello fellow explorers and creative minds! My name is Linda, aka tortagialla - a nickname my adorable husband dubbed me meaning "yellow cake" in Italian. I'm your not-so-typical Californian girl who took the plunge and moved to the Tuscan hills of Italy. Now I'm living my dream designing, illustrating and crafting full-time. You can contact me via email linda [!at] tortagialla [!dot] com
I would be so excited to be the lucky recipient of either! How sweet of you to share! A girl can never have too many journals!
Wow, how sweet and generous of you!
I would LOve, love, love either one, they are both delish.
I would use it to continue my Art Journaling, I completed one just in January.
Would you like me to let my followers know about this great giveaway? That would be competion, hmmm. Kidding.
Thank you Linda ?
Carmen
I meant competition, and a ? after Linda, not (?)
Hugs all the way to Italia!
Oh I understand…the unrecognized characters end up being question marks…I know now you wanted to put a heart after my name
How generous and lovely you’re to give them away. Either one will do for me. I’m thinking to use them for my floral drawing. (Yes, I’m staring to learn to draw plants … ) Whether I’ll be picked or not still want to THANK you for such generous act.
WooHoo!
Sign me up!
I would just love either of your journals—the second is my fav, but I would be thrilled to scribble and doodle in either of them!
Thanks, Linda!!!
Oh, I would love to have a nice journal, the one I use is with lines and that is not so good. I’m in Denmark, not that long from Italy and I have been in Bardolino several times, lovely place Italy.
Linda, what a sweet idea, and the journals are lovely : ) I would love to have either. I want to learn how to do the coptic stitch. Was it difficult to learn?
Not at all difficult! Really just learning a sequence of stringing through the holes. There are some variations on how to attach the covers, but I used this youtube video to make these… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHAJyzzb4EE
both are so pretty, but I think i love the second one pictured the most!
I can’t decide! I love them both, so just enter me for either! Thanks for the giveaway!
Lovely books, either one would be a treat! Thanks.
I love the second one =)
They both are really pretty, but I like the first one a little bit more.

They are both beautiful and you are so talented. I would love to have any one of them. I love to write and in fact, maintains a journal notebook. Thank you for the opportunity for this giveaway.
Either would be great–I journal every day. Your work is beautiful!
Thanks for the chance to win.
The second one is my favorite, but both are just lovely. Thanks for the opportunity!

They’re both equally gorgeous so either one would be great.
Both are beautiful, but I think the second one is my favorite!
I will be perfectly happy with either one. Thank you for the chance to win! They are both lovely.
Wow. I love that you made these for the sheer joy of making. That’s pure art,maybe pure humanity. And I don’t see anything wrong with your books, myself- but then, lefthander that I am, I think every endpaper should be arranged like that!
I’d love to have either of them– I promise I will put all my ideas in the journal and never hold back because I think one isn’t “good” enough.
LOVE either one! I’d be thrilled. I’d love a new journal to (finally) get around to writing about mothering my daughter.
Thank you!
Would be thrilled with either. Thank you so much! They are beautiful.
I would love both! Great work, they are beautiful!
I love them both!! I have my fingers and toes crossed

Dear Linda, how anyone can choose one when they are so beautiful? comfort me your word that sending all over the world because I live in Croatia, in your neighborhood! Best regards to all!
they are both incredibly beautiful! I like the one with the flowers best though
Wow, how generous! I like them both, but I think the one in the second picture is particularly beautiful. I would be inspired to sketch inside that.
These are both so beautiful! I would love to have either!
Wow! I think both are equally beautiful and know my artist daughter would love to sketch away in something as beautiful as that! Thanks for the generous giveaway!
Hi Linda
Both journals are beautiful and I would love the chance to win either one. I also love your attitude – whistle while you work. In the past I have found that worked for me too but lately I have been doing anything BUT whistling while I work. Thanks for the reminder.
I do like both.
Please count me in for either. Thanks!

What a nice giveaway! I’d love to have either one of those, I just love journals!
I like the second one best. Both are very pretty though
Thanks for this wonderful giveaway. The journals are so precious and unique. I am an art teacher and travel when I have time off so this would be a lovely journal for my trips.
Both are so beautiful…..I love the second one especially.
Although I would be thrilled to win either journal, I would prefer the second. I just love the fleur d’lis design! Thanks!
Pretty, pretty! Would be a perfect art journal for me rather than scribbling my ideas on scrap papers everywhere.
The second one had me from the first sight but I wouldn’t be mind to have either one! Gorgeous!
Such pretty sketchbooks! I would love to be able to make my own, but alas that isn’t where my specialty is. I wouldn’t mind either one, they are both quite beautiful!
Oh my did i miss the closing dateline??!! I hope i still made it in time to enter this wonderful gorgeous giveaway! I am loving that gorgeous shabby chic journal!
Love to you!
