How to make a Journal or Daily Planner

Step 10 Make the insert holder flap

Last step of construction! Almost there!

So, you want to use the same material as you used for the pocket (if you did that part), again, I used bristol board.

You will want to cut you bristol board as in picture 2. You will need your insert; open it and lay your bristol board below the cover (make sure to use the back cover, because that will be the cover that slides into the pocket for the insert.

Trace it onto your bristol board, now with this trace, add a 1" border on 3 sides. Now do not make these wings so that they fold perfectly along the traced line of the insert. If you do that then the insert will just be too big to fit in.

Next, cut 2 of the corners off the flaps, see the pictures. and now cover the insert flap, I am sure you are proficient at covering things in paper by now. Again, as in step 8 you will cut rectangular piece of paper to cover up the cardboard and go underneath the insert cover, but above the flaps. Please see the progression of pictures. Then glue, you obviously want to make sure you have a pocket at the end, to put you insert into.
Sweetness!
