This is a regular composition book that can be found at any office supply store. It's been covered with scrapbook paper to dress it up, personalize it, and make it pretty!
TIPS & TRICKS
- Cut your paper about 1" larger than the area that you are covering. Fold the excess over the edges of the front cover and adhear to the inside front cover.
- Cut another solid color paper slightly smaller than the area that you want to cover and adhear it OVER the folded over edges from step 1. This will keep the front cover very neat and tidy and the inside will also finished.
- Cut a 2" to 4" strip from contrasting paper to adhear to the left edge of the cover. This keeps to edge of your decorative paper neater and makes the overall look more finished.
This Mother's Notebook idea is credited to the amazing, sweet, and all around fabulous Carla Reeves of Sanity Journals. Carla led an journaling event with this concept and I must confess that while the outside of the journal is pretty, what she guided us to write inside the journal was truely amazing.
