travelers notebook

Using the Sunshine & Rainbows by Mari Koegenlenberd for this spread in my travelers notebook. I use a fun journaling page on the right side to jot down some fun things from the moment. On the left side I tape down a pocket that’s included in the printable kit and create a tag to fit inside.

November's layout templates are here! Hope you enjoy the layers I've created for you this month. And I've also created travelers notebook versions if that interests you.

In this process video I use my digital Good Life: July 2019 collection. On the left side of the page I use one of the papers from the digital collection as a background page and create a little pocket with a vellum bag for an extra photo. On the right side of the spread is a printable journal page, which I’ve just printed and stuck in my journal. In the middle is a plastic pocket, which I’ve filled with a transparency with gold dots.

Using my beach themed add-on to the Good Life March 2019 Collection, I create a spread with these lighthouse photos from Pigeon Point, CA. I add some fun sequins to the plastic pocket in the middle and do some paper layering behind my photos. I finish things up with some tags.

I made my own travelers notebook with pockets by taking a notebook apart and adding in some pocket pages. Then I stuck the staple back in. I used one of these pockets to make a shaker pocket with some sequins and my fuse tool in the top pocket, and put a photo in the bottom pocket. Some clustering on both sides of the notebook finish this spread off. Papers from Allison Pennington’s Awkward Collection.

October's layout templates are available now, as well as a new travelers notebook version. I love using my travelers notebook, and I'm hoping a few of you do as well. If you like using these templates, please let me know!

I’m using the lovely Blue Skies Ahead Collection by Kristin Cronin-Barrow on this travelers notebook spread. Before filming I created a yellow splatter background with some acrylic paint. To make the design work, I use a little paper cluster with the photo on the right side, and a strip of black and white stripes on the left. Some beautiful flower clusters bring the two pages together.

A fun paper cluster on the left side of the notebook, and after a lot of struggles with the right side I end up leaving it blank. Background paper from Allison Pennington “Today” collection.

Using the Good Life: June 2019 Collection for this layout.

I love using the Journal Me pages that I design for the monthly Good Life collection. These pages make it really easy to finish a double-sided spread when you only really want to make one side of the spread, which is my usual situation. I also printed some of the items from this collection on transparency, and I’ve used one as an in-between page here to add some fun texture.
