Quick + Easy Souvenir Travel Journal (Seattle 2012)

I am about to head out on a last minute trip to see a dear friend in Seattle for a few days. My visit is a present to her from her husband (how sweet is that). While I am there we will be working on her website a bit too and I hope to share that with you soon.

With the Summer issue of Souvenir going live this month, and all the client work I have on my plate, I really did not have much time to make a souvenir travel journal for this trip. So I made a quick one - not even taking 5 minutes!

I used the following items:

1. Moleskine Kraft Note Card (part of their new Moleskine messages)  2. Uchida square paper punch (mine is 1 3/4 inch) 3. Austin Press Sweet Memory Tag (sans envelope, but I must note how wonderful Austin Press envelopes are so it is safely in my journaling stash for another project).

Here are the easy-peasy steps to put it together :

• Punch a square hole near the top - perfect to slip a photo in while away. 
• Used my favourite double sided tape on the tag and cut out loesly around the design.
• Adhered the cut out under the square.

Now I have something to fill with ephemera and memories while visiting (and of course, share with you upon my return!).
