USAPC: One-Signature Junk Journal: June

Many of you are enjoying the 1-signatures and we're ready to complete one for June in this swap! The journal you create should:

• have some papers or embellishments reflecting the time of year

• measure 5.5" wide by 8.5" tall (standard 8.5"x11" paper would work for this--just turn it sideways and fold)

• have some type of cover reflecting the month

• be bound with a pamphlet stitch. There are just LOADS of tutorials on completing a pamphlet stitch on YouTube.

• have at least 8 UNFOLDED pages (more is fine) 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 5.5"x8.5". Please leave plenty of room for journaling. If most of your pages are not suitable for journaling, simply add some extra papers/tucks/etc. inside. Too many busy pages will give you a 'look-book' instead of a journal.

What comes to mind in June? The beginning of summer, Father's Day, bright colors, annuals, and more.

If you've never created a journal before, this is the time! The 1-signatures are so much fun. Please don't be intimidated--jump right in!

Send by date each month will allow you to have the journal from day 1 of the coming month.

Any questions? Please message me; sometimes I forget to check the actual swap. No question is too simple.

Hope you'll join me for this year-long journaling adventure!
