? About Altered Spiral Notebooks...

[looptloop]

I'm wondering how the colored cardstock is in under the spiral part of the notebook?? Are you taking the spiral off or do you have your own spiraling machine?

anyone??

I just take the spiralling off, attach c/s to the front of the notebook, punch holes in it (if you do it with your c/s upside down you can see the original holes so you don't mispunch) then run the spiral thing back through. It's a bit of a pain, but not too much!! Or, you can just attach your c/s on the front, leaving the holes alone (original cover) and then put ribbons and stuff on the spirals to disguise the seam.
HTH!

Tear out a sheet of notebook paper and lay it over the cardstock for a template. Mark where each hole is, then punch with 1/16" dia. hole punch and cut a slit from the edge of the paper into each hole. Then you can tape down your cardstock on the cover and slip the slit holes over the spirals. Works great.
