Default Help, ideas for...

covering these notebooks please.
I wanted to make some as gifts with a matching pen.

These are the "baby" composition notebooks, 4.5 x 3.25.
Has anyone done this before? If so I sure would like to know how

Pam,

I just cut a piece of cardstock big enough to cover the marbled sections on the front and back and used double sticky tape to attach it to the covers. I put a piece of velveteen paper on the spine, but you can leave them black! I rounded the corners after attaching and stamped on the front and back covers! I thought they were really cute and the girls in my club liked them too! Have fun! I hope this helps!

I did the same as Kim with the adhesive. I did not cover the spine on mine, but used a bit of grosgrain to dress it up.

They are so cute!

Jenn: I love your sample. It is adorable. I am working on writing a large order today and ya just helped me add to it! My niece is having a stamping birthday party and I think I'm going to do this project. (ten 13 yr old girls)!

Iris: I also went into the gallary and typed in notebooks to do a search for other ideas.

Good Luck! Please share your sample when you are done!

Hi Pam,

Here is the link to the mini composition book that I did recently. I used RR mulberry paper on the binding. They are SO easy and my customers loved them! HTH!
