World Traveler Notebook Project with Angela

Hi everyone,

It's Angela here with a traveler's notebook project made with the World Traveler collection by BoBunny.

This is one of those projects I love the most because I'm a big fan of notebooks - especially if they're handmade!


World_Traveler_Angela_May18_05.jpgI made the traveler's notebook by myself but I admit is very easy. You cut to size, fold in half, punch two holes along the crease and with an elastic hold everything in place :) I laminated the cover to make the notebook more sturdy and durable, but that's completely optional.

I went for an easy closure, a huge paperclip embellished with a US flag from the World Traveler collection. In fact, the notebook is about our travel to New York last year.

The first page is decorated with a big hand stitched plane which is actually the reverse side of the stitch of the second page.

There is a big die-cut in the noteworthy pieces of the collection that I absolutely wanted to use and I had the idea to hand stitch the plane to make it pop. By chance, I realized that the stitch was pretty nice on the reverse side too!

The second page is my favorite. I love this city, its people, the cosmopolitan feeling of its streets, its view from the Empire State Building.  Oh boy, New York is breathtaking!

Then, a see-through page, made with a piece of vellum to emphasize the fun photo of the following page, where me and my boys were standing at a pair of scissors engraved on the floor.

Here's a fun technique for you: rhe word Love is made with a BoBunny die and the BoBunny Glitter Paste. Here is the technique: you can spread the glitter paste on a piece of card-stock and when it's dry you can punch it with regular punches or dies. Isn't it amazing? With the same technique I made also the heart and the photo corners of the previous page.

This is a post card page with another astonishing view of NY, I made it fussy cutting a paper of the collection. There are several post card images on the collection and I'm just thinking I could make my own post-cards!

I hope you like my traveler's notebook and hope you have been inspired!

Thank you so much for stopping by!

Love,

Angela
