Love travelers notebooks! Can’t wait for all the good info!!
so excited for this bc working in a TN is my fave . Standard & A6 size
I’ve done a 9×12 album and really loved the results!
I started out doing 8.5×11 but I still prefer 12×12, I want to use all my pictures.
I really should try this format. Looks awesome.
My favorite layout sizes are probably mini albums, so cute!
I have never used a travelers notebook but I love Nathalie’s! I may need to try this. I have used 6×8 and 8×8 albums. My favorite is the. 6×8 for a vacation album.
No I haven’t tried a different size but am going to venture out.
12 x 12 is my favorite go to size for scrapbooking however I have tried the SN@P albums which I think are 6 1/2 x 8 1/2″. What a beautiful collection this is from 49 and Market. I just adore all of their lines!!
I like to scrapbook one or two photos only on a page so years ago I went to 8×8 pages. I still occasionally do 12×12 but those are for gifts for family and friends.
I almost never do 12×12. I’ve done TN, 8×8, 6×8, 10×8
I love the paper and the flowers very nice and great size for a notebook
I have a small album that is 4×4 or 6×6. I find it a challenge to work small layouts
I used to do 8 1/1 x 11 DO 12×12 now like better
Such a neat idea! I’m going to try this.
TN’s are my favorite! I just love the 49th and market collection
wow! Those papers and embellishments are gorgeous!! Absolutely stunning!
I love the Traveler’s notebook concept. I have started a few, but never seem to manage to complete one.
That was fun. Love the pocket idea and printing on clear labels. So many ideas popped into my brain with that one.
If I’m doing digital, I’ll do 8.5 x 11, otherwise, I like a 6 x 8 for smaller pages.
I love 49th and Market. I have been wanting to do a TN. This is inspiring me to actually do it! Great job!
I love the travelers notebook.
I have tried different sizes and I like them all. Alot of my books are 12×12, but I have used 6×6 when making new grandparent books as gifts and teacher gifts. I’ve never made a travelers notebook but it sure looks fun! It was beautiful with all those rub ons!!
I was making my scrapbooks 8 1/2 x 11 but I’m converting those pages to 12×12, which I love. I recently went to Europe so this might be fun to try for that trip.
I have done 8×8 albums but mostly work with 12×12.
Great presentation Nathalie. I need to start using rub-ins. I like the softer look of watercolour that they give.
I like 8 1/2×11.
When I first started scrapbooking almost 30 years ago I did 8 1/2 by 11. I much prefer the 12×12 I do now.
I love mini albums! These layouts are so lovely!
I have always watched videos on traveller’s notebooks just haven’t done one yet. Thanks for inspiring class, Nathalie. I have tried other sizes of scrapbooking, I do like 6×8 however my favorite is 12×12.
The tutorial gives me inspiration to create a travelers notebook and to try rub ons. Haven’t tried either yet. Vey creative.
I have old 12×14 albums, prefer the 12 x12. Have done a couple of mini albums. Have been inspired to try travelers notebooks, so preference might change
I’ve made several 8×8 albums, but one of my favourites is a 6×6 album I made for an exchange student from France to remember her trip to Canada.
ty Natalie for so many great ideas on using the rub ons
Yes! Many different sizes- maybe 6×6 is my favorite
do all kind of sizes. minialbbums, travellers notebook, tag books aso but my fav is a 6×8 album. Enough space to have pictures and eb=mbelishments
Beautiful traveler’s notebook! I love the see through journaling pocket you created.
I love to do 6×8 mini albums. I’ve tried TNs but haven’t been as successful with those
When I want to make a lay out these days I find myself using 8 1/2 x 11 sheets work the Best for Me. Thank you for this class, I learned a lot. And of course I Already LOVE 49 & Market so this is a Win – WIN for me!! ;)
Thank you so much for the idea of stapling the rub on pages together. I constantly fight with them and this might just make my struggles less.
I was surprised to watch Nathalie make a ‘2 page LO’ in a travellers album – but it worked very well! Nice work! I’ve done 6×6, 9×9, 6×8, & 8×10 albums & I really like the 6×8 size – esp for mini albums. Thanks for the chance to win. 🦋🌻🩵
Love 49 & Market papers and I have made several mini albums in a variety of sizes from 3×5 to 8×8. But mostly scrap 12×12
This is so beautiful! I have some 49&Market and have procrastinated on using it because I’m never sure how to use it without covering up all the pretty elements on the paper, but this is a great inspiration. I mostly do 12×12 but I like 8.5×11 and also odd sized ones like the traveller’s notebook although I’ve not tried it yet.
Aside from working on 12×12 albums I really love working on a 6×8 album
I’d say that 6×8 pocket pages are a favorite.
I love this. Great pockets and ephemera.
I do 12×12 and 81/2x 11 mostly, but I’ve done other sizes too. I love variety.
I love, love, love this line and I really loved the vellum pocket idea for the journaling!
Looking forward to doing a journal for my upcoming trip.
I used to scrap in 8×11 and then I moved to 12×12 and never looked back. I do however love 6×8 for my Christmas albums
