Mini Travel Antique Handmade Journal

Hello creative friends.  I hope everyone is having a good week and had a good 4th of July.  My week is going well and my weekend was relaxing.  This week I have a flip through another mini antique journal that I created for my Etsy shop.  I used mixed media, brown acrylic paint and black Staz-on ink to create the cover and distress it.  I antiqued the pages and sewed them into the journal, but made it so that you do not see the stitching on the outside of the journal.  I used ribbon to add some side tucks and then added some tags.  I used ephemera to decorate the cover and then attached a chain with a couple of key charms to the cover for a closure. Here are some pics of this journal.









And here is the video showing a flip through this journal.




I really like the way this journal turned out and I love the antiqued pages.  It just takes a lot of time antiquing the pages.  Hope you like the video.  If you are interesting in purchasing any of the journals I've created you can visit my Etsy shop at: https://www.etsy.com/shop/JoysArt360  Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a good week.  Until next time, happy creating.
