Journals

[Lauriejl2]

Im feeling pretty proud lol Im not very techie and since I really wanted to have journal pages for my son for our cruise I figured out how to download Disney Fonts and that in itself was pretty good for me to figure that out without SO after I had the font I just made the pages up on Word and inserted clipart and pictures I had saved on my computer from the wonderful DISigners! They look really nice---SO NOW---what do you guys usually do to bind them? I was thinking a report cover but what do you all do who have made journals?

You have so many options. First thing is knowing how you want to store them after the fact. Second thing, will this be a completed project or would you want to add pages to it later.

If you want to include in a traditional scrapbook, I would just put them in plastic sleeves for now so you can scan them and print on acid-free paper to include in a traditional scrapbook (save as jpegs), that's if you're not using acid-free paper already. You can use acid free plastic sleeves and add into an album size 8x11 or 12x12 sizes.

You can also use the scanned images to upload into a digital book.

You can bind them traditionally at Staples..they have different forms of binding.

I sometimes bind them myself using my binding machine called the Bind it All zutter machine (it's like a composition book and you can add pages later).

You can also use the sleeves and decorative a binder to go with.

You can also use chipboard to make a front and back cover and use the 3 ring technique...inside pages can be glued to chipboard as well or use the plastic sleeves.

Hope this helps
