If you enjoy creative journaling, memory keeping, or working in Traveler’s Notebooks, you’ll love this quick and easy project!

As part of my Cozy Summer series, I recently created these adorable little journal pocket folders using papers from my Honey Bees & Summer Breeze scrapbook collection. They are perfectly sized to fit alongside my altered mini composition notebooks inside passport-size Traveler’s Notebooks and provide extra storage for journal cards, ephemera, stickers, notes, stamped sentiments, and all those little treasures we love to collect.

One of the things I love most about this project is that it only requires one sheet of scrapbook paper and comes together in just a few minutes. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced paper crafter, these pocket folders are a fun way to add both beauty and organization to your journals.
