How to Make a Travellers Notebook – Junk Journal

How to Make a Travellers Notebook - Junk Journal

This is my first attempt at a junk journal. I decided to make in the style of a traveller’s notebook. It turned out great, I think. I used the Pressed Petals Designer Series Paper (DSP) to decorate it.

Making mini albums is one of my favourite things to do. I love how out of a few pieces of chipboard you can create something unique and beautiful to hold all your precious memories and mementoes.

This travellers notebook (TN) is made from chipboard. It measures 7 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ with a 1 1/2″ spine. You can make them whatever size you want though. If you wanted to you can make the basic album and instead of making a TN you could widen the spine and use a hinge binding system instead.
