Meg’s Mini Books are made 6” high or less ie. 1/2 of a sheet of cardstock. They are much easier to make than large journals & also more economical. On top of that, they are lots of fun & very forgiving. A new type of paper Collection has been designed especially for these mini books:
What Wikipedia has to say about the 'color blue' is fascinating:
From Wikipedia. “Blue is one of the three primary colors in the RYB color model (traditional color theory), as well as in the RGB (additive) color model. It lies between violet and cyan on the spectrum of visible light. Most blues contain a slight mixture of other colors; azure contains some green, while ultramarine contains some violet.
Blue has been an important color in art and decoration since ancient times. The semi-precious stone lapis lazuli was used in ancient Egypt for jewelry and ornament and later, in the Renaissance, to make the pigment ultramarine, the most expensive of all pigments. In the eighth century, Chinese artists used cobalt blue to color fine blue and white porcelain. In the Middle Ages, European artists used it in the windows of cathedrals. Europeans wore clothing colored with the vegetable dye woad until it was replaced by the finer indigo from America. In the 19th century, synthetic blue dyes and pigments gradually replaced organic dyes and mineral pigments. Surveys in the US and Europe show that blue is the color most commonly associated with harmony, faithfulness, confidence, distance, infinity, the imagination, cold, and occasionally sadness.”
