    This is AWESOME. Such a fun idea. I love how you included the white pages in the notebook too!! Thanks for sharing such a unique idea! YOU ROCK!!!

      Documented Journey Oh thank you my dear friend 😘 I think the white helps you start somewhere. If it was pattern on pattern it would drive me crazy 😁

    I really, really like the combination of white and patterned pages - it seems like it would give you a lot of flexibility when you make your spreads. And it's great to be able to personalize your notebooks too! Thanks so much for the tutorial!

      Susan Brochu Thank you so much dear Susan. That's why I like having the white pages, it gives me a place to start. You need to make yourself one Susan. 😁😘

    What a beautiful photo, Heba! I agree about the white pages, having two pattern pages right next to each other might be too overwhelming. Lovely pages!

    Thanks for all your information. I don't have a long reach stapler so I punched holes & used embroider floss & sewed them together. Then used a blade to trim. I guess with practice it gets better. But for less than $5.00, it might be easier to buy the inserts. I didn't realize they were that cheap. But thanks, I will keep trying. I don't like to give up.

    • @MyLittleJournal
      @MyLittleJournal  5 років тому

      That’s still works. I know a lot of crafters that stitch their notebooks together. I’m so happy you tried this out 🥰

    So happy I found this video! I want to start making my own inserts. The one question I don't see addressed in any of the videos I have found is should the cover be a thicker paper? Thank you for sharing! I love your pages!

    • @MyLittleJournal
      @MyLittleJournal  3 роки тому

      Thank you so much dear. No I don’t use thicker paper but you can if you like. The thick paper makes it harder to staple though and flatten out

    Thanks for the super tutorial 😀. I've just bought a long arm stapler to make my own TN inserts. I'm struggling to get the staples in the right place. Have you got any tips???

    • @MyLittleJournal
      @MyLittleJournal  7 років тому

      Sarah Toward Omg!! I had that same problem. I just added a slim washi right over where the staples come out. Let the washi cover the edge so you can see where the head of the stapler is. I don't know if this made any sense lol! But if you cover the head with washi you can see from the side where that staple is gonna end up. I hope this was helpful 🤗

    Hey Heba , do you have a flip through of this TN? Do you have a preference between this one and a regular all white pages notebook?

  • @renmo3974
    @renmo3974 4 роки тому

    I made my first one tonight but my pages must not all be exactly the same size. Because when I stapled them together, some stuck out from the cover. I used a Fiscars blade to trim them but they don’t look very neat. Is there a trick I’m missing? I love yours, mine, not so much %!

    • @MyLittleJournal
      @MyLittleJournal  4 роки тому +1

      Hi Lauren, they end up sometimes looking all wonky because they are tucked into each other. I use my trimmer to trim them down, it’s easier. I recommend you don’t use a lot of paper keep it around six papers per notebook and the thinner the paper the better ♥️

  • @missyleevillalobos2123

    • @MyLittleJournal
      @MyLittleJournal  7 років тому +1

      Michele Walters Oh thank you so much Michele 🤗 the paper pad is 12x12 but I trimmed my paper to 8.25 by 8.25. So when you fold your notebook it would be around 4 by 8.25. I hope this answers your question 🙂

    What do you do when the sheets do not match up on the edge? Seems each sheet added sticks out farther on the outer edge!

    • @MyLittleJournal
      @MyLittleJournal  5 років тому

      I just use my tonic trimmer and trim them off 😁

  • @abbyeemm9603
    @abbyeemm9603 6 років тому

    Hi! How did you make the papers align perfectly? I tried everything but my papers don't align properly everytime i fold it

    • @MyLittleJournal
      @MyLittleJournal  6 років тому

      Hi Abby, I always recommend to cut your paper a bit larger then your notebook. So when you have that extra long paper you can always trim it. I find the more paper you add the more your paper won’t align.
      I always use an X-Acto knife to trim the edges if they don’t align.
      I hope this was helpful 🤗💕
