Here is an art journal I made following this wonderful tutorial from Jen of Eve Designs

I made the following changes:

- I cut the spine of the cereal box in half down the middle and glued the two pieces of the spine on top of each other. This makes the spine twice as strong and the book half as thick. It's a little hard to poke the holes through to sew though.

- I reduced the number of signatures down to 3

- I used only Strathmore Mixed Media Paper, 300 Series, since that's what I had on hand

- I didn't embellish any of the pages or make the pockets

- I rounded the corners

To learn more about making gelli plate prints like the ones I used to line the inside covers, I recommend this video by Cat Hand
