WRMK | Clipboard Travel Mini Album | Round Trip Maggie Holmes + Video



Hello and welcome to a fun Clipboard Travel Album inspiration here on my blog mojosanti. Are you looking for a fancy way to document your travel adventures? A clipboard is highly flexible. Because you can add as many pages as you like. I used the new Round Trip Collection by Maggie Holmes for American Crafts, the pink Crop-A-Dile by We R Memory Keepers with two eyelets, and the Trim and Score Board to create today's travel album. There is a video on my YouTube channel. You are very welcome to watch the video. You can find the link further down in this post.



You will need a clipboard, a Crop-A-Dile, the Trim and Score Board + two eyelets as well as papers and embellishments from the Round Trip Papercrafting Collection by Maggie Holmes. The Postcard Booklet from Round Trip is so pretty. And it's also perfect for this travel album project.


Start with the clipboard. Decorate it with chipboard stickers, a photo frame ephemera from Round Trip, and add some of the postcards with the Crop-A-Dile and two eyelets.



Next, cut patterned papers to fit onto the clipboard. Just measure the length and width and cut the paper accordingly. Then punch holes at the top of the patterned papers with the Crop-A-Dile. Next add baker's twine for the closure. You can even create a fancy cover page with two pieces of accetate foil, sequins, and stickers. I sewed around the edges of the accetate foil with my sewing machine. This will hold the foil together. In addition, it also adds a nice little detail on the cover page of the travel album.
