Mini travel Journal

Hi lovely people,
Today I would be sharing an easy travel journal using the Papericious Let's Go paper pack. I love travelling ,clicking pics and thought a mini interactive travel journal would be a fun way to document the journey. So sit back, relax and enjoy the process. 
I made a 4 x 6 inch mini journal as these are easy to handle, infact you can make different ones for the various places you would be planning to visit and I am sure you would always cherish filling these.
I started with taking coordinating cardstock for the internal pages of the journal to the Let's Go paper pack. The cover of the mini journal is made using the kraft cardstock as its thick and sturdy for the journal.
Two pieces for cover pages and one for the spine. Round the corners of both the cover pages.
For the spine score at 1/2 inch. I have made three scored divisions to accommodate 5-6 pages. I would be using paper cord to tie all the pages to the spine. Punch holes at both the ends of the spine. 
 Use a good adhesive/tacky tape to join the spine and both cover and end page of the journal. 



 For the internal pages score in the center and punch holes in symmetry to the spine's punched holes.  
 
 Next step is lining the base pages and outer cover of the journal. I love this paper pack, it has very apt prints for the travel theme.




 For binding the pages to the spine, pass the paper cord/jute cord from the inside towards the outer spine and knot it. Its the easiest method of binding the pages to the spine. 











Hope you get inspired by this mini travel journal and do share your versions with us. 
Keep crafting
