Party Paws Notebook

-
I'm sharing something a bit different today - a decorated notebook. I made a few of these (in different designs) as they were fun to make and quite quick too.




The notebook itself is shop bought, and I sanded the front cover to take off some of the plastic coating. I embossed a piece of white Centura Pearl cardstock and inked the raised areas using spun sugar Distress Ink. I layered up different patterned papers with bright pink Centura Pearl mats onto the background. The image is the character Party Paws and is printed off a Crafter's Companion CD rom. Tonic Nuvo drops were the finishing touches to the simple design. I think I'll be giving notebooks like these as little Christmas presents this year - I like to try and give handmade goods as gifts when I can as it's quite special to give something you've put your time and effort into.


I will be entering this card into the following challenges:

Today I'm sharing my samples made using the brand new Hunkydory Prism watercolour pencils. I had such fun working with these pencils as I'd not used watercolour pencils in quite a long time, and these pencils were just a joy to use. This card uses one of the new FTLOS watercolour wonders stamp sets as well as some of the older FTLOS stamp sets for the butterflies and bees. I've also used one of the watercolour wonders stamp sets for this easel card I've used masking with one of the new watercolour wonders stamp sets to create this DL card. This card uses the FTLOS Fly Away With Me stamp set. I've used the FTLOS Up, Up and Away stamp set on this CAS card.   I've stamped the FTLOS Lovely Lilies onto kraft card for this card. This card has been made using the FTLOS Forget Me Nots stamps and the Blossoming Blues stamp set (for the butterflies).  I've heat embossed the Forget Me Not stamps onto kraft card wi
