mat board journals

[Stamping in Kansas]

What color paper do you put for the inside pages? White or coordinating color? I was thinking these would make great autograph books but am looking for other suggestions for using these.

Thanks

I put either white cardstock in mine or just plain copy paper inside. Depends on if it is for the kids to mess around or for something special.

How do you make mat board journals? I am a newbie but these sound like a great gift idea

Thanks

Hello: What is a Matt Board Journal? They sound cool. Is there anywhere I can view them. Is there a site I can go to. Thanks for helping me. I am a very new newbie!

for the inside paper, get creative and use another printed paper that coordinates, or a solid that matches. And instead of using mat board, use chipboard. it's usually free. it's the same material cereal boxes are made of.

If you use chipboard or the plain grey (ugly) matboard that comes behind stacks of papers sometimes, do you cover both front pieces together, or cover each piece separately? (the 1" piece & then the longer one). Hope this makes sense! I have to use whatever I have in the house as we have NO extra money right now.

THanks!
