here's a start.

I wanted to share what I have started to make with my new art journal kit. I have decided to use it as a little photo journal for Paul and I this summer. I loved in UP when Ellie thanked Carl for the adventure. Eighty years from now, I will say the same to Paul.
Just one photo in there for now. We have started taking walks at night and on Tuesday I set my camera on the curb, started the timer and ran. Which would have been fine once. But we did it five times. Paul's middle name is "Good Sport."
I glued my map pages back to back to get map on each side. And I trimmed around the red frames. Soon they will hold photos and journaling.
I stitched the book together with the string from the packaging. I used a regular sewing needled to poke through all the pages and stitched in and out along the fold. I tied it off with a small knot.
The crosshatch pattern on the red paper makes perfect frames. I will be adding photos in the boxes as we take them.
So that's my take. I'm excited to get more photos of THE TWO OF US so I can add more embellishments and adventures to this little book.
