The shorthand pad look

Last Friday, the need for a distraction (from work) came in the afternoon and so I talked myself into giving bloomize a makeover.

I had designed fake comb binding patterns as a layout for one of my websites in the past but this time I decided to use a real flip-calendar, my camera and some editing at Paint Shop to produce this.

The spiral wire on a real writing pad weakens the bonds esp when you tend to over-flip (I know I will, so that’s why I rarely use it) but with wire pixels, the bonds are permanent. :-)
