These notebooks were a great find by Barbara Bicknell at the $2 shop! We decorated them up with the new Poetry Prints Pack and transformed them from utilitarian to a special gift.
Although, personally, I love notebooks and write in one nearly every day, so I plan to keep these . . . :-)
I had fun playing with the embossing folders - embossed directly onto the notebook! Took some fiddling to get the right sandwich, but the finished look was really, really COOL.
I'm really liking the Summer Starfruit after this project and the last scrapbooking layout. The ribbon looks quite nice with this combo.
The blue polka dots one above is my favorite out of all of them. Just liked the freshness of this one.
The main image is from the stamp set Collage Curious, a great wee set perfect for layering up the images.
Shona Edmonds and I taught this last weekend at the Hamilton Extravaganza, and everyone just loved that Silver Glimmer Paper. Almost a shame to cover it up!
There are just 10 days left to get that lovely Vine STreet Embossing Folder! Shame we can't keep that little beauty a bit longer!
Email me to place your order!

These look very impressive. Embossing straight onto the notebook was a great idea. I love how you have decorated the top too.
