I had no idea there is a Traveler's size! I love how you removed the spine and customized it. :) Interesting video - thank you!

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you! I almost choked when I saw they were releasing this size, haha. I bought it right away😄

[@DeerheartStudioArts]

i don’t usually watch a whole vid on a flip through but your thoughts and ways you used the journal interested me. I make journals but haven’t given much thought to the use. I have been more focussed on construction and decorating. Now I have new ideas inspired by your vid. thanks much!🦌💌🙏📙📝🔖☕️🇨🇦

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

That means a lot to me, thank you!🤗 Happy journaling♥️♥️

[@CydPiper]

Sarah, LOVE! this book is gorgeous! I absolutely love your planning & journaling techniques. The art layouts are totally adorable & fitting to your Summer into Fall timeline. Please consider doing a video demonstating which mags or books you use to get your layout pieces? Thank you in advance with lots of continued Luv xoxo

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you so much, Cynthia! I usually use Magnolia Journal and any cottage or farmhouse magazine I see at the checkout aisle. Super easy and super cheap!

[@gailsbookishthings5191]

It was fun to see your journal pages... I saw you use magazine pictures in your journal a while back and I have since enjoyed doing that in my journals. Glad you shared that idea! I’m really wanting to try to new paper! Wish it was less expensive but I just may need to give it a whirl!

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

If you can wait a month, she’s going to offer thinner versions with 192 pages! In B6 Slim and Standard. She’s working on it right now! Should be a little more affordable.

[@karencolum]

Thanks for sharing Sarah! Love your covers. You have become so skilled at making them! I’m using the Cosmo Light Air notebook after watching your video and loving it like you! I left a comment on one of your other videos but I wanted to say that I have this Cross pen that I love that I have cross’s ballpoint ink with a broad tip and it writes like butter. I tried it in the Cosmo paper and even the ballpoint ink looks stunning! It sort of glistened. Unbelievable, ballpoint ink!

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you so much! Yes, I remember your comment and I'm so pleased that there's so much great feedback about the paper. I love hearing about it!

[@tortagialla]

Love how you didn't get held back by making spreads more than they have to be - just doing whatever you feel like - so freeing and wonderful! Love seeing this - thanks for sharing and inspiring!

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you!! I appreciate that❤️

[@audreycampbell9483]

I love your style in the covers you're making, interesting and clean at the same time. Maybe you should think about selling some. I love the striations on the leather used. It reminds me of some tiger oak furniture I used to have

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you!❤️ If time and responsibilities allowed, I might consider a shop. But it’s just not in the cards, unfortunately!

[@lizgerman1238]

Thank you for letting us know about it does with fountain pen ink! ❤️

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching♥️

[@MyLifeMits]

Loved it, thank you for sharing! And that weeks, zip, and standard cover! You're so talented!!!

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you so much, Mits🤗♥️♥️

[@GraceBye]

You always make me feel less alone i write in my journal too, I started putting some memory journaling in my planner . Thank you

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Aw, I’m glad to hear that! Thank you, Grace♥️

[@conkrotwife]

love how you incorporated found images into your journal. I have saved lots of images but just can't quite make myself glue them down. I'm going to try this!!

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Definitely get those images down! It makes it so fun to flip back through the pages😍

[@SouthShorePaper]

Thank you so much for your honest thoughts on the paper. I journal mostly with fountain pens and considering it is a pricey notebook I don't want to waste a lot of money on the wrong paper. I still love how your pages turned out though !

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

I’m glad it was helpful! And I totally get it-I’m looking for more than my inks not bleeding through. I want them to shine!

[@miasterling]

I haven't commented before, but I adore your videos! And I love those full-page magazine cutout spreads, they look soooo clean.

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you so much!! I'm glad to hear it🤗

[@marshahostetler]

I love your process Sarah! You explain it so well thank you for that. Sorry I took a step back from social Media but had to watch your videos! Wow I love both of you TN and the zipper one too you amaze me.

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you, Marsha! Stepping away from social media seems like such a good idea. I don't blame you one bit!

[@latishawitherspoon8436]

I am definitely looking forward to your feedback from Danika's notebook. I am currently in a Soumkine and I am in paper heaven. I've already ordered another for when my current one is filled. However, I am definitely intrigued by Danika's notebook. I think I may order one just to have it on hand.....🤔🤔🤔😏😏😄😄😄

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

That's awesome to hear that you're loving the Soumkine! I definitely want to dive into it for journaling so I can have well-rounded thoughts on it. I can't imagine loving any paper more than the Cosmo Air Light, but I'll be mature and reserve judgement!

[@SoulfulSerenity-888]

what are some of your favorite magazines for clippings?

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

I love Magnolia Journal and In Her Studio the most at the moment!

[@karenwyzwmnbrown5853]

I love the picture spreads! What a great idea! I also love the size and shape of the Travelers notebook

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you! I agree, the standard size just feels like home to me😍

[@lenanana8]

I love that leather zipped pouch you have! Did you actually make that?? If you did, I would love to see a video on it!

[@ultrawifey]

Cosmo Air vs TRP. Do you feel that the Cosmo Air paper is better than TRP and it make FP inks even more beautiful?

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

100%!! It bumps up the impact of inks way better than TRP. However, it’s a completely different feeling paper. So if you prefer super thin and crinkly, the Cosmo isn’t going to satisfy that.

[@ultrawifey]

@@sarahmartinezjournals oOoh okay. I too have been on a hunt for a fat notebook that's standard size. So I can't wait for your review of the Soumkine :D

[@tosif9539]

I like the magazine clippings. Good idea. I'm going to do it. Thank You

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you! I hope you have fun with it♥️♥️

[@maryannemoll]

Those leather covers are so beautiful!

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you so much!♥️♥️

[@kathleenstrode8445]

Love this notebook size and your mag additions

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you so much!♥️

[@stephaniestephenson6662]

Love your journal pages. I might have to go standard in new year.

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

I support moving into Standard size😁🙌🏼

[@MM-pj4bl]

And where did you get the Buttered Rum leather please? Oh I see it. It’s the glazed harness. Gorgeous! You know you can buy a whole hide directly from Wickett and Craig. That color is the only one they have in stock too right now. And they will split the leather too. Also, bellies of the same color are $13. Just a friendly FYI. :)

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you so much for the recommendation!!

[@yasmeensiddiqui2107]

Lovely. I also do that adding in art work...my art is like a kids.You are so creative. I love that you try to make things like your leather covers all self taught. Very cool👌

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you so much 😀

[@MsIslandV]

So cute! Do you make and sell the leather covers for the Archer and Olive TNs? Id be interested in them

[@dawnrano132]

I had no idea the archer & olive made a standard size. As soon as I started watching your video I clicked on the link to go buy one and wouldn’t you know, Sold Out! 😭 it says back soon but I was so disappointed.

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Oh dang it! I hope they restock soon 🤞🏼

[@taniamello4315]

Your 2-page spreads are AWESOME! And you will always have them as a remembrance ! Well done, Sarah !!! Love, Tânia, São Paulo, Brazil 🇧🇷

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you so much, Tania!❤️❤️

[@bhal1556]

Hi, I love your videos and your journaling and decorating style! I'm curious about what scrapbook paper you used that has the swans on it? Also, does the thick paper in the Archer & Olive feel like cardboard thick?

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

The scrapbook paper is by Crate Paper. It’s from the Heritage Collection called Allie. I got it on www.scrapbook.com/ but I don’t see it there anymore.

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

And yes, the A&O paper is incredibly thick. Of all the paper I used it most resembles cardboard in my opinion

[@bhal1556]

@@sarahmartinezjournals Thank you very much!

[@bhal1556]

@@sarahmartinezjournals You were saying that you weren't crazy about this notebook; I was wondering if you would be interested in selling the green one.

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

I actually gifted the green one to my mom since I knew I wasn’t going to use it!

[@MM-pj4bl]

Oh wow please show us the zip cover! I am so intimidated to try to make a zip cover. Sarah, which tutorial did you watch? Help me learn too! Lol

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

I'll show it fully in my full lineup video! I still don't know if I'll be using it for 2021😬. I haven't found any good tutorials for adding a zipper but I watched this one over and over and tried to copy it, haha: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n57UoIedhc6MaM0

[@MM-pj4bl]

@@sarahmartinezjournals thank you!

😍👍🏼🌈🌈❤️ oh great! Now I want to eat watermelon while floating in the ocean!

Agree with the FP comments 😉

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

haha!🙌🏼

[@ravenskye6595]

Ok I'm still blown away with the zippered cover 😳😳😳😳 girl , you are freaking talented- that is beyond basic skill.... Show me that cover again...please? Is it working as you want it?

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you!! I’m planning to show it fully in a 2021 lineup video, I promise! It works great but I think I’m not going to be using the 5 year journal that it’s made for😬 so it will have to wait to be used.

[@stephaniestephenson6662]

Can you do a video on 2021 journal / planner line up please xx

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

I will! Probably towards the end of Nov. I’m still deciding on things. Because I want all the things. lol

[@watchthevideos56]

Great video Sarah, always enjoy them. Love your covers. You should sell them. ❤️. Stay safe.

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you so much, Mary❤️❤️
