Hello Butterflies,
Have you ever want to change the look of a folder you add to your Traveler's Notebook?
Today I would like to share with you how I made a clear folder to add to my Traveler's Notebook. You are probably asking yourself why would I want a clear folder?
Will there are many things you could do with a clear folder. You could leave it where it's clear so you can see what you have in it. You could take color construction paper, cut up to fit in the pocket so you can have a color fold that may fix your theme of your TN. You can make a small vision board for each pocket facing out, so each time you're flipping through your TN. you see it.
There are so many things you can do! Personalize it to it fit your style.
Let go head and jump into Making A Clear Folder.
Supplies will need :
2 - Transparency Film page 8.5 x 11
Ruler
Scissors or Paper Cutter
Your Choice of Washi Tape
I will be making mine to fix an A5 Traveler's Notebook, You may have to adjust the size to fit you'res.
Take one of the transparency sheet laying it down flat, take the second sheet folding it in half. Take a bone folder or scissors down the fold to make it flat as you can. Cut it on the line you folded into it.
After cutting the second sheet place the two pieces on the first pieces of Transparency paper, so now you need to mark 1" in the center of the two piece, this way you can cut it out. At this point, you will need to also want to cut the angle at the top. I cut my angle 4" from the bottom.
So it should end up looking like the picture.
Now it's time to put it all together, Grab your washi tape.
Take the two pieces of the transparency sheet that you cut and lay it on the first sheet. Make sure you line the out side together, take the washi tape and tape the long sides wrapping it around the first and second sheet. Then do the same to the bottom, with the side tape it will make it easy to tape the bottom.
When you're done you should have some thing to look like this.
You're Done! Now it's time to Personalize it to it fit your style.
