We have had my sister up visiting for a week, she is heading off to Nicaragua at the end of this month for 3 months to do some volunteer work. I decided to make her a travel journal so that she can record all of her fantastic experiences. I have used a Bo Bunny 6x6 ring binder and decorated it with the fabulous Saturated Canary image, and Bo Bunny - Aurora papers.
I also added in some blank pages and some ruled pages so that she could write down some of her experiences, and I also created a couple of pockets to store memorabilia
Me being me, I finished this the morning I was giving it to her, and so I took the photos at 7am, and the light was really rubbish, so I apologize for the bad photography!!
