If you are like me you might have many notebooks around your home and you could always use some more ;) These notebooks are just lovely and the perfect size (3.5″ x 5″ inches) but they lacked a cover. This craft was inspired by a previous ornament craft with diamond shapes.
The way I made these was fairly easy using a rubber-stamp, white pigment ink and embossing powder. I have a tutorial on how to use embossing powder on this post. Once I had my diamond shape “embossed” on black card-stock, I used a 2″ inch circle punch and then glued it to my notebook. Super easy! I’m listing the materials I used below. What do you think? As always I love hearing from you!
Materials:
- Scout notebooks (set of 3) sold at Amazon.
- Silver embossing powder
- Geometric rubber-stamp (by Kid Made Modern)
- 2″ inch circle punch sold at Amazon.
You have to give these a try, they are magnet compliments.
