No Sew Journal made with a Tab Binding - and a FREEBIE!

Today I'm showing you how to make a no sew junk journal binding with single pages and a book cover! This journal doesn't have the typical signature where you fold pages - you just create your single pages (adding as many pockets, tucks and flips as you want!) and then it all binds together using tabs. I'm using printable washi tape tabs, but you could use fabric tabs too!

AND, I have a freebie for you! To get your free marbled washi tape printable, click here: https://madpapercrush.com/marbledwashi

I'm only 2 minutes into this and just have to say!!!! Your voice…omg your voice is sooooooooo nice! I can't mention names but I can't watch certain videos because of accents and sing song-y voices. Your voice is so refreshing!!!!! Thank you!

Most helpful tutorial. Thank you. I’m particularly fond of Reader’s Digest condensed books for journals. I appreciate the tips concerning wiggles.

I’ve Seen the tab binding before, but it always seems so complicated, you do an excellent job of walking us through it. It was also very helpful that you pointed out how tight the tape should be and showed the buckling that could potentially result. I’ll put this on my list of journals I want to try! P.S.cute plate! ☺️

This really is first class - I have watched over 20 or 30 similar videos - none come close - brilliant communicator and lovely encouraging tone! Thank you very much - your hinges blew me away after what I was watching elsewhere!. LOL.

Hooray for the lefties of the world! I wondered if you were a leftie when you started from the back of the book. I always read magazines back to front - seems easier somehow. Great tutorial - thank you :)

Such a fun project! I love how flat the pages lay. I will definitely give this a try!

Love this. I've seen this before but never knew how it was done. Thanks so much for the tutorial.

This just popped up on my list. I haven't seen anyone use a book cover and I love it. I hate trying to make the front and back cover thick enough to handle it. I look forward to watching more videos.
