Decorated Mixed Media Notebooks
Good morning, hope your week is going well. Today as I was waking up I said to myself "Thank the lord it is Friday". Then I realized that it is only Wednesday. That is what kind of week I am having. Not a bad week, just feels really busy. But enough of that, today I have some decorated notebooks to share with you. I got this idea from a video Heidi Swapp did on My Craft Channel. It was the perfect idea for a birthday gift for my daughters teacher. It was also fast and easy. Here they are ...
To do this I just bought some simple Kraft notebooks off of Amazon. I then used white acrylic paint, color shine, and a stencil to create the designs on the cover. I cut some frames with my Silhouette Cameo and glittered up some thicker letters. I then used some Heidi Swapp stamps and black ink to stamp the sentiments and finally added a bow with some zip dry. It really only took about thirty minutes to complete the notebook. It was so fast and easy that I had to make another for myself. Who doesn't mind writing down their to do list in a pretty notebook.
Well that is all for today. Hope you have a great day.
