Wanted a beautiful journal without paying the ugly price

Another journal I made, first time trying the hard cover method. Im not sure if I did it the 'right" way, but I sewed 13 signatures of 4 onto a piece of 1 inch ribbon for the pages. I made the cover out of 3 pieces of card stock, one for the spine and two for the covers and covered then with the astrological pictures and connected the spine to the covers with the construction paper. I hot glues the ribbon the the inside of the spine, then covered the inside of the covers with more construction paper. I covered the cover with mod podge to protect it, and somewhere in there I added a ribbon bookmark :D Next time Ill make an actual tutorial with pictures.
