Hi Everyone!
If you found your way here from Really Reasonable Ribbon's Ramblings, you are in the right place!
If you just happened on to my blog, head on back there, because that it where it all starts! :)
You don't want to miss any of the awesome projects the girls have created for your viewing pleasure...or a chance at a great prize from Really Reasonable Ribbon.
With school starting back up soon, I thought I would create something that would be a fun but simple way to doll up a little note pad. What kid wouldn't like to have personalized school supplies? This is so simple that if given the supplies, they could easily create some themselves. All you need is a little designer paper, some pretty ribbon, and a Sharpie marker for doodling.
I found these cute little 3 1/4" x 4 1/2" notebooks at Staples that were already fun colors so I didn't even have to cover them up.
I used my "Garden of Life" pre-colored set for the designer paper. I printed it on Discount Card Stock's Brilliant White 110# cardstock.
The "Garden of Life" digi set is available as an instant download for just $3.50 @ Clear Dollar Stamps.

I had a scrap piece of the "designer paper" left in the size of a bookmark so while I was at it, I grabbed a piece of Cylamen Cascata Felt from Discount Card Stock which was about the same color as the notebook, and made a matching bookmark.
I prettied them both up with the sweet Capri Blue Satin with Grosgrain Edge ribbon form Really Reasonable Ribbon's - August Monthly Ribbon Club assortment.

I haven't tried digi yet, but this project sure is cute!
Such a cute idea! I have used composition notebooks to decorate for journals but not thought to look for smaller books to do the same. Look out stores- here I come! Thanks for the inspiration!
OH, I love the way you wrapped the ribbon around a scrap piece of patterned paper to make the front! I am ALL about using up scraps!
The notebook looked lovely before but now it really has a girlie look, the bookmark is great too. Both are beautifully embellished.
