Make Your Own Smash Book

So you may be saying, "What the devil is a Smash Book?"  A smash book is a journal you keep on any subject you want (or none at all), where you don't think about how it looks, you just "smash" down photos, magazine/newspaper clippings, receipts, ticket stubs, dried flowers...really anything that inspires.

You can make one on their favorite color where you smash down pics and things and journal about how each thing feels.  You may smash a journal on a vacation or perhaps things you want to do to fix up the house.  It's totally up to you.

So here's my challenge...make your own Smash Book!  Pick a topic (or don't) and then journal away.  Don't worry if it's sloppy, if things match...just slap and go.  Here is a video on how to make your own.  Post pics of what you do.

I made mine out of various sheets of double-sided sheets, and other papers I didn't know what to do with, but totally was in love with.  I am using mine to collapse the mound of mags I have down to a cute little idea book.  Pics to come.

Love, Peace and Crafts
