One way to help with the distortion of the bulk is to not work exactly front to back. Alternate some between working in the front and then in the back, although this does make going chronologically difficult. Also if you cut the pages a little narrower and not go right up to the seam, that helps too. Love all your spreads though, simple can be fun!
I find that 6 sheet TN’s work best if I’m doing full page photos and embellishments, so I pull out sheets from the center of my notebook at the very beginning. This leaves me space for 11 double page spreads. If I need a second book, I make one with the sheets I pulled out of the first one.
Loved watching this come together
I was wondering about the bulk as well. This TN is beautifully stitched so the idea of gluing some pages together might work the best. I'm eight double-page spreads in, so if I glue a few pages in the middle, I think it will all work out. At the end of the summer, I plan to add some sort of closure to help keep it closed. I'm so enjoying the process whereby nothing feels overwhelming and it is easy to stay up to date.
I’d re-bind a notebook this bulky. Pull the staples out, pierce some new holes, and see together with a pamphlet stitch.
Love stamping on the map!! Just scrapbooked a map I wish I would have used this technique on :) Next time!
Thanks for sharing your beautiful pictures and stories!
This is good info for the beginning of my summer TN. How about a few pages mixed in between all the bulk that are just handwritten journaling and/or stamping?! I’ve also seen people adhere a couple pages together instead of using every page. 🤷♀️ Still learning/experimenting myself…
I take out some pages if it’s getting to bulky OR I take it completely apart and put the pages into a Citrus Twist album (because they fit perfectly into the album).
Oh, I love this. What I do with extra pages that will make the notebook to fat, is glue two pages together, do another spread or two, then do it again. More than 12 or 15 spreads will make it too fat. Love what you did with the circles.
Absolutely 💙 this. We just got back from our summer family vaycay in Missouri! Can’t wait to start documenting!!!
Yes the insert definitely gets bulkier. You could abandon the insert or at the end you can pull the staples or current binding and create a larger cover to hide the bulk and rebind it.
Very cool. Love both of your insert ideas in this TN. Can't wait to see what your take will be on adding a transparency and a modified pocket page of some kind (hint hint hint lol).
"Unmotivated living"...yes...that exactly.
Awesome spreads as usual. Love the idea of cutting down the map page. Genius!! Keep the inspirations coming:) So excited for your travel class! Thank you!
I would reconstruct the notebook when i start the next one. So there won't be excess pages in the back when it's reaches its full bulkiness. Then make a second notebook with the extra pages..if that makes sense
I usually remove the staples and a bonding with some cross stitch thread. Large needle is helpful. It’s a great one too give a set of stories one single space together.
Im loving this album Ali and I loved how you embellished the circle paper that looked amazing. We get the beautiful blue skies all year round but they are stunning through winter.
Yes I agree it’s been an “odd” feeling…like a transition year…
Love this!
