Something a little bit different today! So I don't draw on the first page of my sketchbook or make a special cover page like a lot of people do, I literally just skip it and start drawing on the second page. If I do anything at all with the first page, I just put stickers I've collected over the course of the sketchbook, and I also write when I started and ended it on the inside cover.

I thought I might get a little bit more fancy though, and design a bookplate to print out on some sticker paper and stick in there instead. This may or may not also get use as a regular bookplate in some of my keeper books, so I decided to go ahead and add "Ex Libris" in there too C:
