(I'm thinking I may keep this one for myself and use it for PTO meeting notes!) I think these papers from Graphic 45 with the oversized images are perfect for covering composition notebooks. After trimming down the main image to fit, I added a "ruler" strip along the binding edge.
I find this portion of the image pretty hilarious, so I wanted to highlight it. I used an old paper tole technique, and cut around a portion of the image then adhered it using the Kool Tak clear 3-D foam squares.
Finally, I wanted to add a fun touch and cover some extra images on the main paper. I cut out some of the flash card images from a paper, and adhered three of them directly to the paper below. I wrapped the remaining two with Doodlebug Doodle Twine and popped them up using the 3D clear foam squares.
I can't wait to make another of these with the Christmas papers to keep me organized through all the shopping, baking, and entertaining coming up!

I love this. I love thispaper so much I've been hesitant to cut into it--LOL, but maybe a journal for myself would be perfect. Thanks

ReplyDeleteLori,
ReplyDeleteThis is SO cute. I love what you have done! ...Julie
I want to try this so bad. I love the paper you used and you make it look so easy. I have yet to find something to stick my paper to my book. I tried the Clear and Seal and Modge Poge but didn't like either. After seeing yours I may make it my mission to try others so I can make one. TFS
