Ah...the smell of freshly dried paper...

...it is almost like the smell of freshly baked chocolate chip cookies...NOT! But after you make the paper, you are always crazy antsy to open the dryer the next day because you can't wait to see the paper! This paper is going to look luscious letterpressed printed in a warm chocolate ink. (the color, not the flavor :) Donna and I continued on our papermaking marathon today. We left the studio with pulp-y arms & legs as well as completely exhausted. Only a few more papermaking marathons days and we should have the paper part of this project wrapped up...then on to letterpress.
