No, it isn’t the same as being there…


So I hope you’ll have a chance to experience it for yourself, someday.


To make your own travel scrapbook page similar to this one, you’ll need a photo plus patterned paper, alphabet dies and washi tape. I used Altenew’s Simple Alpha dies to cut out the letters for the page title. I used patterned papers by Graphic 45 and Simple Stories to create the background.


If you enjoy armchair travel, or documenting your own travels in a travel journal or scrapbook, I invite you to return to this site often for more craft tutorials, project ideas and inspiration! You can make sure you keep this site on your radar by signing up for my newsletter and community at Substack. .



Basic subscriptions are free; I send out regular newsletters to let my subscribers know about new craft articles and tutorials as they are posted. I also share details about the craft projects I’m working on, and invite my readers to share their projects, too. So there is no need to feel like it’s just you, crafting all alone at home. I’d love to have you join us! You’re invited!!

I'm excited about this book, Delicate Crochet by Sharon Hernes Silverman! I am super proud of the 2 patterns I contributed to this pattern collection. I hope you'll check out the fingerless gloves and the beaded necklace I designed for this book. Thanks for taking a look at them!
