Lapbook/Journal: The foundation

This is my foundation in a Lapbook/Journal project.  In this tutorial, we will construct a Lapbook/Journal with a cover and 10 inside panels (although you could add more if you wanted!) to decorate.  
   

Supply List:  

Cereal boxes

Double sided tape

Duct Tape

Decorative Washi Tape

Kraft Paper

Glue stick/Fabric Tac/Adhesives of choice

Paint/ink/other you have in your craft room

Ideas for this book construction are a combination of techniques from some of my favorite book makers on YouTube including:

Nik the Booksmith

Mike Deakin

Jen of Eve

The photos of the book below were taken of an earlier book.  You can view prior finished books Vintage Cowgirl, Cowgirl Journal, and Lavender Tea Journal.  You will find YouTube videos on these pages, also!  This will give you an idea of where we are going with this make!

Check out the video below for step by step instructions!

Ok, so if you watched the video, you found that my book is going to be filled with Polkadoodles paper and embellies....and the inspiration is my new GSD pup!  Here he is.....introducing....
