Hello, back again with a new travel journal- in fact, 2 new travel journals. This one is called "Wander" and is listed in my Etsy shop here. Get comfy and here we go... this journal has 68 pages with a combination of vintage tea dyed legal ruled writing paper, vintage linen, sketch, and water color papers on which you may journal, sketch, draw, paint, and glue.
I have designed 4 double-sided pocket dividers using premium double-sided card-stock papers from Tim Holtz's "Correspondence" Collection, embellished with pockets (each divider is a full page pocket with top opening), hand stitching, clips, double-sided tags, metal, leather, cotton twill and velvet page turn tabs, vintage hand dyed seam binding ribbons, brads, lined coin envelope pockets, and a trinket cluster. Each page of this journal is hand inked, stamped, and bound with sturdy O-Wire between covers which were created from a 1914 children's story book from "The Airplane Boys" adventure series. Also included are a vintage 1930's bingo card double-sided pocket page and a vintage Quizmo music game card with 10 pages of sketch paper attached.
Now for the photos:

Original Title Page
Publishers Date and Divider 1
Name/date page.
This journal has 4 dividers which are also full page pockets with top openings, embellished with more pockets to hold all those photos, lists, postcards, stamps, notes and memorabilia from your days of adventure or even from your daily life.
Divider 1 Backside
With 1 bottom pocket with a large tag tucked in and 2 tiny tags hanging from a tiny safety pin.
Each divider in this journal has a vellum facing page and a metal, leather, cotton twill, or velvet page turn tab. Each page is hand inked and stamped, and each tag is double-sided with space for extra journaling or photos.
Divider 2
The correspondence page.
Instead of a full page pocket, this page is divided in two with a half circle cut opening on top and a mail slit in the middle. It is embellished with 2 top/side opening page pockets with 5 tags slipped in. There is a tiny paper clip on the pocket and a little round hang tag on the top.
This page is ready to keep those stamps, addresses, postcards and other mailing items for your trip together in one place. You could clip a pen on the page or on the cover to always have handy.
