Let's Make A Spiral Bound Journal Part 3

Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator 


Welcome to my blog, thank you for joining me today 😀

I am bringing you the third part of my new Junk Journal With Stampin' Up! Series.  I am making some labels and faux postage stamps today. I saw a great video by Sevenplaza where she made these simple labels and I just had to make some myself. I really love how they turned out. I also make some faux stamps with the left over from the free Sale-A-Bration paper Beautiful World. I do like to make my own postage stamps. 

The Beautiful world paper is part of a bundle, it comes with the matching stamp set and is free with a £90 order from my Stampin' Up! shop. Hurry though as this offer ends on August 31st.

Measurements and Materials

  • Each page is cut to 6" x 4"
  • The book covers 6 1/4" x 4 1/4"
  • I had to cut the cover down and in the video you see how I did this
  • Each tag is 5 1/2" x 3 1/2" 
    • I used the Very Best Trio Punch to add the corner detail to each corner
    • I then scored lines on each tag
    • I scored @ 5 1/8: & 5 1/4" on the each long side
    • I scored @ 3 1/8: & 3 1/4" on the each short side
    • It may be easier to add these score line before you punch the corners
  • Each pocket measure 2" x 4"
    • These were cut from the spare 6" x 4" pages I cut from the Wonderful World Paper 
  • Each pocket was edged with card stock die cut with the border from Penned Flower dies
  • Pocket for the inside of the cover was made from the plain book page 
    • 3" x 4 1/2"
    • Score @ 1/2" on each end of the short side
    • Score @ 1/4" on each end of the long side
  • Labels - outside label 3" x 1 1/4" - inside label 2 3/4" x 1"
  • Stamps punched out of scraps so were all different sizes, the punch allows you to make smaller stamps


Now watch the video tutorial to see how this was made :-)
