The Passport Journal Project 1074

The Passport Journal Project 1074

Your collage pages were made to go places. In this beautiful project from the Curious Collage Society, mixed media artist Tiffany Sharpe shows you how to transform pages from The World Is My Canvas into a slim, handmade Passport Journal you can take anywhere — to a café, on a plane, or tucked in your bag for whenever inspiration strikes.

You’ll learn a simple one-signature bookbinding technique that creates a lightweight journal with pocket pages and a layered collage cover. No special tools required — just your book, some thread, and a needle.

Because the Collage Soup book is designed in landscape format, it works beautifully for journal making and makes page layouts especially easy to fold and bind into a slim travel notebook.

What You’ll Make

• A handmade one-signature Passport Journal with a collaged protective cover
• Folded journal pages using your Collage Soup book
• Built-in pockets for ephemera and found papers
• A simple stitched binding using the classic pamphlet stitch
