Hello everyone and welcome to Altenew’s November 2018 Release Blog Hop!! Today we are showcasing all of the new Stamps and Dies. If you arrived here from the talented Svitlana Shayevich blog, then you are on the right track. If you arrived here on your own, then you will want to start at the beginning, the Altenew Card Blog so that you don’t miss a thing!
Take a look at my mini journal:
This mini journal is so cute! Its an actual book.
Take a look inside:
It’s so easy to create as well.
Here’s how:
Cut one sheet of 12 x 12 patterned paper to 8 x 12.
Score the paper in half lengthwise.
Score the paper on the short side in 3 inch intervals.
You will have 8 scored panel measuring 3 x 4 inches each.
Cut along the fold lengthwise, cutting across only 3 panels.
Fold the patterned paper as shown.
Bring the uncut panel together and fold the other pages to form the notebook.
Glue the 2nd and third panel together to from a page. Glue the 4th and 5th panels to form a page and glue the 6th and 7th pages together to form a page.
Create a cover using a 4 x 6.5 piece of patterned paper. Glue the front and back sheets of the notebook.
Paste these two pages to the cover of this mini journal
Decorate the cover.
Decorate the inside.
To keep the book close, use a brad to hold the tag and serve as a closure.
Let’s take another look:
