The pages of this book were created using recycled A2 White Craft Card at a nice heavy weight of 220gsm, which makes it perfect for photograph albums.
It would also work wonderfully well as an artist's sketchbook … you can stick lots of great craft materials on this card for a beautiful finish. As it's 100% recycled it has a slight texture to it which is great for crayons, pastel and paint work.
The grey-board used for the covers is also, wherever possible, made from recycled materials.
This book is unique and made entirely by hand.
As a wedding gift, you can guarantee that no one else but the happy couple will own a book like this. It could be used for photographs or a wedding guest book.

… Because Your Memories Are Worth It
The covers for this landscape A4 hand bound book are original cyanotype prints. Both the front and back covers feature wild Umbelliferae gathered from the hedgerows around my beautiful Wiltshire home.
Umbelliferae grow in profusion here - wild carrot, wild parsnip, hogweed. Most umbellifers are characterised by their disc-shaped umbels, which are made up of many tiny flowers held on short flower stalks, and it is this shape that makes them perfect as pressed flowers and then as subjects for cyanotype prints.
In the final prints they can look like snowflakes or starbursts or fireworks.
This photograph album has a lovely rich feel to it because I used silver ink, plus a dash of gold, as well as a few pinches of salt in the development process.
To add to the richness of the covers, I used Hahnemuhle Buggra Bütten paper to create both prints. It’s a beautiful art paper.
The inside covers are made using handmade dark turquoise Lokta paper from the Himalayan foothills of Nepal. Lokta plants are a sustainable and renewable resource. This is the perfect Earth-friendly stationery!
It would be a wonderful wedding or engagement gift.
The book is stitched together with silver waxed cotton thread.
I used Coptic stitching to bind the book together. Coptic binding means that the book will lie completely flat when opened, which makes it perfect as a photograph album. It’s also the perfect binding for journaling or sketching.
