Make an Altered Notebook & Cover – How I Did It! – Go to Greetings – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – UK

I found these little notebooks online and bought quite a few to give as gifts. We made this in a recent card club and everyone loved them, so I thought I would share them with you.

The paper is Flight and Airy. I’ve used it to cover the outside of the notebook as well as the front of the flap. They are simple to make in bulk.

I love pretty notebooks, who doesn’t? I don’t end up using them all but I still love all the pretty patterns. Today I’ve decided to make my own. I bought a cheap notebook and made this pretty cover. Hopefully, now I will use it!!

I made this notebook in two different colour variations. Which do you prefer the Night of Navy or the Copper Clay?

How to Make a Penguin Shopping List Cover

How to Make a Penguin Shopping List Cover – Penguin Playmates – Independent Stampin’ Up Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK – Crafting with Ashee.

I love, love, love how this came out. It is so cute!! I think my favourite critter on this paper is the sleeping fox. As some of you may know my team name is the “Crafty Foxes” so this really sang to me. This is made from two shopping list notebooks I got from a supermarket ages ago. So easy to make and a wonderful little gift to someone. It would be great to start jotting down any ideas you have for Christmas.

Make a Cute Cover for A Notebook / Lists – Well Suited DSP – Cat Punch – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK

This is so easy to make. It’s a lovely little notebook to keep your bag for notes, shopping lists or even your Stampin’ Up! wish list. I love notebooks, planners and journals and have quite a collection. You always need a pretty notebook for a new project. You can make a couple of these from a sheet of A4 cardstock so they are quite economical as well.

A Little Note – Rocco Rose Post it Note Book

A Little Note – Rocco Rose Post it Note Book, Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I have this cute post-it note book to share with you today in Merry Merlot.

A Little Note - Rocco Rose Post it Note Book - Stampin' Up! — A Little Note – Rocco Rose Post it Note Book- Stampin’ Up!

This little post-it note book as a magnetic closure to keep everything neat and closed. It is a very simple project but looks so cute to keep in your bag or desk. The patterned paper is from the family stack. I found the sentiment in the Butterfly Gala stamp set and it matches this project perfectly.

Come Sail Away Altered Notebook

I have this lovely altered notebook to share with you today. This project uses the Come Sail Away suite of products from Stampin’ Up! This suite includes a gorgeous stamp set; Sailing Home, designer series paper, memory and more cards and of course matching dies.

I am not normally a great sea person. I did think long and hard about buying this set but I’m really glad I did as I love it now. The designer series paper (DSP) is beautiful and is great for cards as well as altered items and mini albums.

measurements

Night of Navy cardstock – 8 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ scored on the long side at 4 1/8″ from each side
Come Sail Away DSP 3″ X 3 3/4″

I love altering little notebooks, candles and such like. I have a box full of things waiting to be “improved” through crafting. The little notebook used here is a handy jotter from Wilko and cost only pennies. This is a lovely cheap project to make to include as part of a party bag.

As always there is a video tutorial below and supply list

Bespoke Notebook – Follow your Art

I made this cute little bespoke notebook using the gorgeous paper from the Follow your Art suite of products from Stampin’ Up! The actual notebooks is a pound shop find but I’ve made it something special using pretty papers. The notebook is the perfect size for you to carry around for the hundred and one things we have to try and remember.

Bespoke Notebook cover using the Follow your Art suite of products from Stampin' Up! — Bespoke Notebook cover using the Follow your Art suite of products from Stampin’ Up!

I love making little altered items such as this bespoke notebook. I think it’s a great way to personalise something cheap and make it something special.

measurements

Calypso Coral Cardstock – 5 7/8″ x 8 3/4 inches – Scored on the long side at 4 1/4 inches on each side.
Follow your Art Designer Series Paper (DSP) – 4 1/8 x 5 3/4 inches

This is a simple and easy project to make and Stampin’ Up!’s beautiful coordinating products make it super easy to put together. The stamp set is an old one called Crafting Forever. I simply love the sentiment that reads “Crafting Forever, Housework Whenever”. This is so true for most of us. Personally, I know that I much prefer to be in my craft room than doing the washing up.

The DSP is covered in hot glue guns and little bottles of glitter, although equally they could be bottles of glue and a drill. This is what makes this paper so great as there is something for everyone.

Do you like to alter items? What bespoke items have you made? Leave me a comment and let me know.

I’ve done a video as always which is below along with the supply list.
