Note book + cover

Hey there, crafting friends...

I have been thinking of making a pretty little note book that will make a small and pretty gift that friends can tuck into their purse. Hence, the idea of this note book + cover.

The layout for the notebook cover is from FTL 185  at the Clean and Simple Stamping blog here. I thought that's a genius little sketch. My scallop circle die is exactly half of that circle. Perfect. Thank you, Natasha :)

With my scorer, you can easily do that. Just score twice to make a half inch spine for the book cover (I score at 5 1/4" and 5 3/4" for a card stock size of 4 1/4" x 11").

I then finished the cover with Summer Smooches DSP, Real Red 1/4" grosgrain ribbon, and the flower images from the Bright Blossoms stamp set. I can totally make a bunch of this note book. That would be a nice idea for a party favor.

Here is the inside of the note book:

Here is my current display in my stamping room :) I love this petite purse and the fabric brad. Soo cute :)

Thanks for peeking,

Liza
