Description:

Create a junk/smash Journal using a old or new book cover or game board or thick cover of your choice...(no flimsy cereal boxes, it must be as thick as a hard cover book.)

It can be bound with rings if you please but reinforce the pages around holes...or it may be signature bound.

Make this Smash book at least 5 x 7 inches with 20 pages or more, that's at least, 40 front and back sides of the page. Add three pockets or more

Important: Decorate 80% of pages very lightly so your partner can write in or add photos to the book. Embellish the pages lightly using pretty papers, stencils, ink, paint stamps, ect.

Indulge your self in mermaids, sailboats, lighthouses pirates and all things nautical!!

This is for people who like bookmaking, cutting paper to the size of the pages you want to fit inside cover, ect. I'm giving two months to make, plenty of time to make two!!

Look on u tube for inspiration about altered book making.

You can add elastic and button closure this, of course, is so very optional. Decorate the cover how much you want.
