Hello Tombow friends, this is Jennie and I am taking a trip down memory lane. Hopefully, this will inspire you to document your childhood memories! I love documenting memories using mini albums and travelers notebooks. This album from Citrus Twist is the same size as a travelers notebook, perfect for documenting little stories!
Supplies:
- Tombow Power Mini Glue Tape
- Travelers notebook or mini album
- Tombow TwinTone Markers
- Scrapbooking paper and printables
- Embellishments or stickers
Step One:
Print your photos! Technology is great, but sometimes it fails. I prefer to have my photos stored online and also printing them. You can use collage applications like PicStitch to use more than one photo in a layout. I created photo strips with this app.
Step Two:
Write your story! You can write a letter to your childhood or write something short and sweet! Use journaling prompts to make the writing process easier. Sometimes I type my journaling, but most times I prefer to write it. I love to look at my grandmother’s handwriting and I imagine future generations will enjoy mine too. Journaling in color is super fun with the Tombow TwinTone Markers.
Step Three:
Glue everything down! I like to use the Tombow MONO Adhesive Dots when I’m not sure where the elements I’m gluing will end up. Usually, I use the Tombow Power Mini Glue Tape.
Step Four:
Embellish your pages with stickers and die cuts. The Tombow Power Mini Glue Tape is also perfect for die cuts!
I hope you feel inspired to document your childhood memories!
Although I am not a child, I also have a travel book. In addition to beautiful photos, there are also short interesting stories that happen to me during trips. Soon I will fly to the United Kingdom again and I want to fill up my book of memories with new adventures. I found business class flights to United Kingdom at a good discount and bought tickets for my friends with the money saved. We are flying in a big group. I think it will be especially fun.
