Erin Lincoln, for PTI's Make it Monday, showed us how to make a notebook. I immediately thought of my 8 yr. old granddaughter, and of how much she would love to have a little notebook, so I made this one for her. I was having difficulty getting the papers to stick properly--they seem to fall out too easily--so next time I will use a lighter weight paper for the notes inside, instead of PTI's heavy cardstock. It did help to bang (!) the top edge on the table to "set" the papers against the sticky tape, but I'm not sure how long they will stay in...
All materials are PTI (and there were at least 4 different stamp sets), except for the alphabet, which is by Lawn Fawn.
Thanks for looking!
Kathryn I love that your personalized the cover. Adorable notebook! Love the bright colors too. This was so much fun.
ReplyDeleteAwwwwww...your granddaughter will LOVE this! SO cute and bright and fun!! :0)
ReplyDeleteThis is so fun and colorful! What a sweet little idea to give to your granddaughter. I'm sure she'll love it!
ReplyDeleteThis is ADORABLE! What a lucky little girl!!
ReplyDeleteKathryn, it looks like such a fun little notebook for your granddaughter to keep her summer memories in. Love this!
ReplyDeleteFun & bright - super little notebook!
ReplyDeleteKathryn, this is SO adorably sweet!
ReplyDeleteI love the pretty colors.
This is just darling, your granddaughter will love it I am sure! I made one with just colored computer paper and it seems to be holding up okay, the pages need just a little more of a tug, but that is a good thing I think! I plan make one for my granddaughter also, she is into volleyball, so I am going to use that these!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea. Your granddaughter will surely love it. So cute.
ReplyDeleteKathryn, sorry I didn't make much sense with what I wrote up above, I think I was having a brain freeze or something...anyway, the point is that your notebook is really cute!!
ReplyDeleteI have an 8 year old granddaughter too (actually have an 8 year old grandson as well) who would love this personalized notebook! Love every detail, especially the stamping inside.
ReplyDeleteKathryn, it is beautiful. Would you mind telling me the dimensions of your notebook and how many pages you added?
ReplyDeleteMuch appreciated,
Mayela
Mayela, I followed the directions on the MIM video, getting 8 small sheets from each piece of card stock. I used 4 sheets of card stock, all different colours, so 32 pages, altogether. Hope that helps.
