Happy First of Christmas. Now as you regulars to Jo Bloggs know I tend to do a special at this festive time of year. This year is no exception, but I did want to be kind to myself as I do have a lot of other things to do as well. So instead of a large journal we are going to play with 12 mini journals, well 11 actually the twelfth is quite big. I will be posting these alternate days. So grab you paper stash, scissors glue, bone fold etc and make some books.
 |
| One piece of 12 x 12 double sided decorative paper |
 |
| Fold in half and the fold each half into the middle, therefore it will then be in quarters |
 |
| Rotate once and fold in half. Now with paper facing you with middle fold vertical, and four panels on each side of that fold. |
 |
| Sore at 2 inches and 10 inches. |
 |
| Cut as shown, (2 inch score lines are at the sides) |
 |
| Add doubled sided tape to either end on the 2 inch strips. |
 |
| Fold up and stick down. |
 |
| Place face down. |
 |
| Add tape to bottom left corner panel |
 |
| Fold up and stick together |
 |
| If you wish black edges |
 |
| Add tape as shown |
 |
| Stick together |
 |
| Cut a piece of contrasting card, 4 x 1.5 inches. |
 |
| Score and fold at half and 1 inch. |
 |
| Add double sided tape |
 |
| Attach to spine |
 |

 |
