Homemade autograph books!

[DumbosMagicFeather]

I thought I would share the little craft project I was working on for our trip members here at the boards. They're a surprise for everyone so I can't show them off yet, buuut..they don't go here it's safe!

I made them with cardstock and had them bound at my local copy center along with getting nice plastic covers to protect from water, and then got these beautiful stickers to put on them as decorations. Each one has stickers of the recipient's favorite character. I'll post a few pictures of the insides too; I made personalized pages for the favorite characters as well, to make sure that the autographs will be extra special. The rest of the pages are decorated too, but they're not as neat Here they are!

and then some of the inside pages here...

Please tell me what you think!

These are SO cute! I have done some myself, that were constructed basically identical to these. I have a coil binder at home, though, so I didn't have to get them done at a copy store, but yours turned out really nice! I really love how you designed specific pages for specific character signatures! And the matching pens are a great touch. Thanks for sharing!

Very very awesome! I do the same thing almost, except I do them after the fact. I have my nieces take unlined index cards and a sharpie for the autographs, then when we get home I do thepicture on one side and the autograph on the other with decorations!!! I put them into a 6 x 8 scrapbook!

I love those, you did a fantastic job!!

This might be a dumb question but how do you know which character pages to add in them? I was halfway thinking about making one for our trip but I'm clueless as to which characters will be in the parks. Do you do a bunch of generic pages in it too?

 

[DumbosMagicFeather]

Thank you, everyone!

Jiminette- I actually only made the really personalized pages for chars we knew would be there (the fab five, for example), and then one page for everyone's favorite. SInce the faves are pooh, cinderella, tink, etc, I knew they would be there at least some point on our trip. The rest were generic...I made about six different generic designs with random things, a disneyland logo page, cali. adventure logo page, disney sketches page, etc. When I looked up disneyland characters on google there were a couple of lists, though...
