  Step 1

  Hi! It's Lori from Choux Choux Paper Art. I've made a fun journal using washi tape binding. It's easy: Gather up some favorite papers, envelopes and miscellaneous ephemera. You could go for a theme such as travel or family. You'll also need washi tape, of course!
  Mine is just a Hodge-Podge Journal and I'll decide later how to use it.

  Step 2

  I started this journal by adhering the playing card to a doily with an orange washi tape.

  Step 3

  Envelopes work really well. They can go in any direction and can still be easily opened.

  Step 4

  The butterfly page is actually an envelope that has been sealed and then cut at one end with decorative scissors. It's also decorated with wide washi tape.

  Step 5

  For interest, add different sizes of paper. Also, change up the washi: not only color, but this yellow striped paper has been bound with three small strips of washi, instead of one long piece.

  TIP: If the washi tends to loosen (some of it does), just add a tiny dot of glue at the ends.

  Step 6

  The most important thing? Put together papers that make you smile - put together things you love!
