New York Travel Journal

My sweet teenage friend Ally is going to New York next month for her senior trip. I'm totally jealous  of course, but I'm even more excited that she'll be experiencing New York for the first time! I made her a fun 6x6 travel journal to take along. I used lots of travel and New York themed papers and stickers, along with a few pink papers and embellishments because pink is Ally's second favorite color (glitter is her first favorite!).

I tried to include lots of fun details with plenty of room for adding journaling and memorabilia. Here's a look at the inside pages.















And a look at the back cover.
I met up with Ally for some gelato recently so I could present her with this gift. I do think she likes it!
