I had this travel journal I had purchased in a kit on QVC back in the day and never decorated. I found I didn't really like the embellishments that came with it. Enter the Creative Memories Cricut Traveler cartridge. I liked how fun and universal (no pun intended) these images would be for whatever trip I decided to use this for.
I cut the "explore" at 1-3/4". It has three layers and as long as you cut the brown layer on a slow speed, you should have no problems. I used the Creative Memories precision point glue pen like the one shown below to glue to brown layer onto the orange layer. CM has such outstanding tools and albums. I had first heard about this pen from other Cricut users and found that it rocks! You can get your HERE.
I cut the "world with magnifying glass" at 4-1/4" - it layered up nice and easily.
This would be such a fun project to make with Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts for their excursions and camping trips. There are 3 layers to everything and it goes together pretty easily.
Check out some of the images on the cartridge below:
