This is the back side of page 6 and the front side of page 7. On the left page is a frame around an empty space. This space could be used for a quick sketch or additional journaling. On the left side of this layout, there is a decorative strip that holds a book mark. This strip is often referred to as a “belly band”. It can be a piece that is attached at both ends or a strip that wraps around a page.
Continuing from yesterday’s post, this is the first view when you open the cover of Victorian Dressmaker’s Notebook. Because this book is a tri-fold, you see the part of the outside cover that is folded to the inside of the book when it is closed. When the cover is opened, you see the first pages, which are attached to the left side of the book. This book is set up with three double-sided pages tipped into the cover on each side, giving it 12 inner pages.
