I love altering notebooks. My latest project was for a sweet friend of mine. I know she loves to journal and thought this would make a great birthday gift.
The Story of Us
This was super fun to make. I pulled apart the notebook to remove the covers. I sanded and painted both covers before adding October Afternoon paper. I painted a Maya Road chipboard frame with eggshell paint. Once it was dry, I added Rock Candy clear crackle paint and rubbed it with Old Paper ink into the cracks. A few flowers round out the front.
It's super simple and hopefully something my friend enjoyed receiving.
Thanks for visiting!
