This week I've made a mini travel journal using some of the Stamperia papers.
They're taken from the 8x8 LadyVagapond collection.
This is the page with the front cover - looks like a real book.
I cut the inner pages out of some of this paper and some other that I had. Stick an extra strip down the spine and then sew the pages in.
I've cut out some of the front cover images.
Then start sticking in the pictures.
Add some background stamping in brown...
...and blue Archival ink.
Add some text in VersaFine Clair.
Then finish with some black pen
You can obviously take this even further, adding ribbons, embellishments, charms etc. That's what I like about it - you can really put your own stamp on it.
Hope you've enjoyed this project!

it's a gorgeous book . . . is it wrong to presume you started with a real book and cut the inside pages out? I loved the embossed cover. Thanks so much for sharing what you've created from this wonderful paper collection
