USAPC - One Signature Junk Journal - October

Hi swappers!

I am taking over hosting this monthly swap from isabellasnow for right now.

This swap is for a handmade journal that you create. For the month of October, you may, if your partner so chooses, to create a Halloween or fall themed journal.

If you sign up for the swap, PLEASE PUT IN THE COMMENTS the type of journal you want: Halloween, Fall, or regular journal with no theme. (sorry, I'm not yelling at you, I just don't know how to make this section bold so that your attention is drawn to it. ha ha)

The minimum size for the journal is 5.5" wide by 8.5" tall (standard 8.5"x11" paper would work for this--just turn it sideways and fold).

Have a decorated cover on the front of the journal that you create.

You can bind the journal however you’d like. There are loads of YouTube tutorials on binding styles for handmade journals. Pamphlet stitch is probably the easiest, but you can use anything you like for your binding.

The journal must have a minimum of at least 8 UNFOLDED pages. This means a stack of 8 entire 8.5"x11" pages, which will double the page count when folded.

You may use an assortment of papers for the journal you create--not all of them will have the same measurement; however, the cover should measure approximately 5.5"x8.5". Please leave plenty of room for journaling.

Make sure to include decorations, embellishments, tuck spots, pull-outs, pockets, tags, etc. and ephemera to your journal for fun interactive journaling.

Hope to see you in the swap!
