There are not so many medieval-looking notebooks out there. You can find a few on Amazon with the keyword "medieval notebook." But paper quality is questionable on those products. If you have no other options but these, then you have to be careful on your ink choices. Iron-gall inks tend to feather less and behave well on cheap papers. Check out Platinum Classic inks. They are iron-gall and perhaps the vintage sepia green/black/brown color you are looking for.
(EDIT: sorry, forgot that the notebook must be vegan. But inks should be alright.)

My idea is: how about using a parchment? What I know is that J.Herbin and other manufacturers sell parchments at reasonable prices. This way you will waste less papers than using a notebook.
Here's one I just found on Amazon.

Reviews say this is suitable for fountain pens. This is not real parchment so it might be okay?

Unlike the one above this seems like a genuine one. (It may not be okay for vegans.) Wonder if it would work with a dip pen? If anybody has an experience with a genuine parchment, please leave your thoughts here :D
Hope this helped!
The foam board I used was just normal foam board. I had a glossy white one and a matte black one. I do not suggest using super glue on the matte black as it will absorb into the paper and leave behind a oil-slick looking halo around the insect.
What I did was glue parchment paper (something like this) to the foam backing. I really liked the contrast it made with the insects, and it also gave it a classy and more professional look, I thought.
