Dragon Journals and Sketch Books

~~NEW~~

Dragon Journals and Sketch Books!!

By FriggleFraggle

Hello lovelies! I have been busy these last few weeks making Dragon journals and sketch books. I love to write and draw so I carry a doodle book with me at all times to jot down ideas and I know many who do as well.

It's been a while since I made books and really wanted to again. I used to gather with a few friends and have a day full of creating, talking and eating. Oh how I missed it! I love creating things especially when it's something that can be used often and these fit right in with the Dragon theme that I enjoy so much.

*These are very time consuming to make so I don't know how often I will offer them but I have a small variety available right now.*

Sketch book or journal? Why not both!
Either can be used for sketching or journaling but I prefer the lined paper when journaling and blank paper to sketch, but what you like is up to you :)

Journals are a great way to write down your thoughts whether it's a story you want to share or used as a secret diary, it can be therapeutic and a stress relief.

Red Dragon Sketch Book

Red Dragon Sketch Book

by FriggleFraggle

This is a post dedicated to the Red Dragon sketch book from another post that included all the Journals and Sketch Books.

To see this Sketchbook in action check out the video on YouTube

I love fantasy and would like to share some of my world with you. When I carry around a dragon journal or sketch book I feel like I am carrying another world with me, the kind not everyone can see or understand. The kind of world where your imagination can turn an ordinary bird into a dragon, a flying bug into a fairy, a mushroom into a fairy's table. The world does not have to be dull or plain, it is so full of beautiful things if you just stop to look around.

Sketchbook
Close to a (A5 - 140 x 210mm or 5.5 x 8.25 in.)
160 pages of artist quality drawing paper
32 pages of smooth brown drawing paper
4 pages of sturdy brown card stock paper

There are 3 different types of paper in the sketchbook to doodle on.

This sketch book has a detailed hand painted eye that gives it depth.

I added a scaly mesh and 3D textures to resemble Dragon skin.

I also make the Magic Wand Pens in a variety of styles and colors.

Business Card Holder

Dragon Eye Business Card Holder

When I tell people that I am an artist they ask, "Oh? Do you paint?" I smile and then say "Yes, but It's more than just painting..I am not a painter like what you would think of, canvases and such. I make things...like wands...." Then they usually look at me with a confused look. So I have been trying to think of ways to carry some of my creations with me besides pulling out a magic wand.

I had a really cool business card holder that I found thrifting but it is old and started falling apart so I thought it was time to get a new one. I found this one and thought it would be a great way to show off some of my work while handing out cards.

It has a nice flat base to work with so it was perfect for what I had in mind.

I think it is actually a cigarette holder which makes it even better than a business card holder for the fact that it can hold more cards than a regular card holder!

If you are following me then you know my style is Fantasy, Folklore, Fairies, Elves, Mermaids, Wizards and Dragons...So what to put on the cover was just so obvious for me I didn't even have to think about it.

A Dragon Eye! Inspired by my Dragon Eye Necklace, wand and books.

Now when someone asks me what kind of artist I am I can pull out my business card holder and show them a sample of my work :)

How the Jewel Encrusted Dragon Egg came to be....

*Dragon Egg from Friggle Fraggle

*Story by Friggle Fraggle

When a dwarf came into possession of a dragon egg all he could think about was his lost treasure. So he decided to hatch the egg and raise a dragon because where there are dragon, a treasure is sure to be.

Keeping this wonderful secret to himself he found an abandoned cave and began to make the hottest fire he could possibly manage. Using the embers of rock from the dragon's cave that still held the heat from it's breath he tossed the egg in and waited.

When the egg had been in the flames for quite some time, pulsing veins could be seen on the red hot shell and little cracks began to appear. Suddenly, there was a snort and horrible howls coming from deeper down in the cave. It was not abandoned after all but inhabited by a group of nasty trolls who were not happy to have unexpected company.

The dwarf carefully fished the egg out of the fire even though it wasn't ready to hatch. He had to get away from the trolls quickly and cover his tracks along the way. They were moving in on him and the egg was still glowing with heat giving him trouble keeping it covered.

He finally made it to the entrance of the cave and was ready to head into the forest when he tripped over some twisted roots of the giant oaks that rested above the cave opening send the egg tumbling out of his hands to the ground. It rolled downhill back into one of the smaller side tunnels and stopped in a pile of jewels, diamonds and pearls.

The trolls had caught up having longer legs than the dwarf and knowing the caves much better and were just around the bend. The dwarf looked at the eggs and then the jewels. No time for delay. He scooped in the spot where he saw the still glowing egg and hurried off, bag full.

When he was safely out of the trolls area he stopped for a rest. Looking into his bag he let out a loud cry realizing that he had missed the egg and was only left with a bag of jewels. The egg sat in a pile of gems where they attached as it cooled.

 When I go to make a post on Instagram of a new creation sometimes the post becomes part of a story and it just flows out before I even know what I am doing. They may sound silly but these are the kinds of stories I would tell my kids when they were little while we were out picking blueberries on the farm or playing in the garden. I hope some of you enjoy them :)

Mother of Dragons

Mother of Dragons... Closely watching and caring for the eggs until they are hatched or adopted. I carry one around my neck and another in my pocket. Some are placed on shelves and others in boxes. But all are uniquely special and loved.

Which one is your favorite?

Mermaid Eggs

Mermaid Eggs

When I was a small child mother took my sister and I on trips in the summer and long weekends. We usually went camping or hiking somewhere new but sometimes we liked a place so much that we wanted to go back again and again.

One year we went to Aquarena Springs in San Marcos Texas.  As a wide eyed child I still remember seeing an Aquamaid for the first time and fell in love with the idea that Mermaids really do exist outside of movies and story books. 

They swam so gracefully in the water as I watched through the thick glass that separated us yet let me feel like I was right there in the water with them. They had a show and did tricks such as back flips and my favorite was when they drank coke out of a glass bottle.  I was amazed and wished I loved water enough to be a mermaid, yet I was still afraid from my near death experience in the past.

We rode the glass bottom boat and could see all the fish and underwater creatures swim below. The whole time I was watching out for more Mermaids and was sure I spotted a glimpse of a tail. Ralph, the famous swimming pig was also a sight that people traveled far to see.

The history of Aquarina Springs in interesting and I wish it was still open so you could have a chance to experience the magic as well. Sadly, it has closed and is now a nature center. Here is an article explaining more in detail of what it was and is now.

That is a place I will never forget and remember fondly to this day.

~~~~~~

Over the years I often wondered if Mermaids lay eggs or give live birth. What a silly thing to think about but it does cross my mind. They have human features on the top and are fish like at the bottom so that makes me think that both are possible. 

When the idea of Mermaid Eggs came to me I tried to think of what an egg from a Mermaid would look like. I imagined it would be similar to a mermaid in their beauty yet a little rough like a fish. So I made the texture layered and scale-ish but encrusted with beautiful colors and gems. 

Here are a few pictures of my Mermaid Eggs

This one is a dark blue and black with a blue stone and little blue gems.

This one is pink and black with a pink stone and pink gems.

This one is a pearl encrusted black and white egg.

I have a few more varieties and create new ones as I am inspired.
I also have Dragon Eggs!!
They will be available in my shop soon.

Have a magical day...
