It's vacation time! Hurray! I' so glad to see some semblance of normal slowing returning to the world; it seems that everyone has cabin fever and is planning a vacation for the year.
Since we are heading out west in our motorhome, I wanted a journal to make notes about campgrounds we stay in and a daily diary.
I used Eileen's Book Binding Die to add two special pages to my jounal.
On the inside front cover is a vertical tuck pocket. On the right side is a pocket made using Eileen's Notebook Pocket XL Die. I changed it up a bit and made the pocket flat. I'll probably slip some note paper in there.
The 2nd page on the left below is actually an envelope where I stuff receipts, tickets and that sort of thing. Since it has a flap that is secured with a magnet, I don't have to worry about losing things. (See how to make this page in the video.)
The right page is just open tuck spots that are great for reminders, grocery list etc.
This is fabulous! Thank you for sharing I love the video! May I ask if the journal cover is made from Mat board /mount board ? And if so do you cover the board prior to die cutting x
ReplyDeleteI always cover my matboard before cutting, it just looks so nice when I do it that way. I believe I used chipboard for this particular journal but I often use Sizzix's matboard or mixed media board.

ReplyDeleteThanks so much.
DeleteWow! Thank you.
ReplyDeletesoooooo pretty Maggi! Have a fun trip. =)
ReplyDeleteThanks Lisa! Looking forward to visiting your state!
DeleteBeautiful project. I was looking at the keyholes from Graphic 45 and they don't seem to come with the brads. Do you have a source or recommendation for brads to match? Thanks
ReplyDeleteThanks. I haven't bought any brads in a very long time. Tim Holtz has long brads, called long fasteners that I think match. Most any brad will work, you just want to be sure the fastener part is long enough.
