Hi everyone. Today's Techo News is a small technique by Techo team member Marutani on how to paste packages that have thickness in your techo. Below are her comments.

Recently, I've been into wind-up toys. My most recent purchase moves in such a cute way, so I decided to keep a record of that in my techo.

Firstly, I peeled the tag that was on the toy. This peeling technique is useful when you want to paste something that is thick, such as tickets and cards, but you don't really want to make your techo bulky.


▲I peel is off carefully like this


▲The tag split into two neatly. This time, I'll be pasting in the back of the tag as well.

By peeling it like this, I can paste it in my techo neatly without making my techo bulky. The pages won't get bumpy either, so it doesn't interfere with the rest of the pages.

After pasting in the tag, I wrote a lot with a ballpoint pen, but it seems quite sad when I use only a black pen . . .



In order to make the page a bit more fun,



I decided to line it using the Zebra Mildliner.

This was my first time using it, but the ink doesn't bleed so I really recommend it! Using a marker makes it easy to add some color to your spread.

The ballpoint pen I used is Zebra's "bLen'' ballpoint pen in 0.5mm; another item I hadn't used before despite purchasing it a while back. The "stress-free writing experience" makes it really easy to write, so I recommend this too.

What I actually want to do is to draw illustrations of the toys I bought! I'm sure I won't be good at it though . . .


▲Bonus. The wind-up toys I bought. I will try drawing this . . . It might be a bit hard for me . . .

How did you find it? I also have a lot of tags that came with the items I bought that are too cute to throw away but am not sure where to keep it. Pasting it in the techo after thinning it out seems like such a great idea! I'll be sure to try it out.
