I am making this post because I couldn't find a tutorial ANYWHERE online. I visited my best friend a few weeks ago and her 3 year old had this book that her pre-school teachers made. Sawyer fell in LOVE with it, so I knew I had to make one for her. It was fairly simple once I had all of the supplies. To make it you will need: CD sleeves (Office Depot) 1" album rings (Hobby Lobby) reinforcement labels (Office Depot) Hole Punch Double Sided Tape Different materials for texture. I used: Silky-silk fabric Leathery-leather scraps in the jewelry making section at hobby lobby Bumpy-snakeskin scrapbook paper Crinkly-plastic that I removed from the CD sleeves Furry-fur in the craft section Foamy-foam sheets Scratchy-glittery foam sheet Rough-cardboard scrapbooking sheet I first (very carefully) removed the plastic from the CD sleeves. This was tedious because the paper rips easily. Once I had the plastic removed, I made three holes on the side of all the sleeves. I then put reinforcement stickers over the holes. Next I cut each texture to the size I needed to fit into the sleeve. I then put pieces of double sided tape on the back of the material and slid it into the sleeve. Then I taped the flap shut with clear packing tape. After I had all of the sleeves finished, I put them together with the album rings. I printed a label to go in the front sleeve, and that was it! I went through and wrote in sharpie each texture. I wanted to print cute ones, but the space is pretty small so I just wrote them. It's a HUGE hit! She has been playing with it for a few days now, and it's holding up well. I have gone back and reinforced some spots with more clear packing tape, but so far she's being pretty gentle with it! I hope this helps anyone who wants to make one of these for their little one!

A Guest Post by Claire Woollam from The Digital Iris.

As photographers we constantly strive to capture what we see in our pictures. Shooting textures […]
Captured within the frame of this expressive print is the evocative beauty of Isleornsay Harbour at the day's end. The painting's bold, impasto strokes convey an almost tactile texture, creating a dynamic surface that vibrates with life and energy. Warm hues of vermilion, amber, and gold contrast strikingly with cool tones of cerulean and cobalt, suggestive of the interplay between the fiery sky and the tranquil water. As the sun dips towards the horizon, its resplendent glow is masterfully reflected in the mirror-like harbour, creating a path of shimmering light that leads the eye through the composition. The undulating silhouettes of the surrounding rugged landscape frame the scene, their outlines softened by the atmospheric conditions of the waning light. Contrasts are at play not only in colour but also in form, with the fluidity of water juxtaposed against the solidity of the land and the ethereal quality of the sky. Small flecks of pure white and lighter tones speckle the water's surface, capturing the sparkling effect of the sun's final rays dancing upon the gentle ripples. This print would pull the viewer into the serene yet emotionally charged atmosphere of the Scottish harbour, serving as a window to a fleeting, yet timeless moment of natural beauty. As part of the 'Scottish Harbours' collection, this piece holds the promise of bringing the dramatic and romantic spirit of Scotland's coastal beauty into any space.
