Gathering holiday memories in a mini journal or album is so much fun and very easy with Canvas Corp Cardstock Papers. The quality and thickness of the papers make them the perfect base for your handmade book. The Crew shares with us some very special holiday handmade books, using Canvas Corp papers, to inspire your own holiday memory book. Make yours before the season is in full swing and use as a journal or planner. Create a recipe book filled with your favorite holiday recipes for yourself or as a perfect gift. Or wait until the end of the season then create a book to capture all the memories.
