This is my project for the 1st Scrapp'n Savvy blog hop.

This composition book, was made into a notebook called, "Things I Love."
I used the WeR Love Stuck patterned paper collection

1. " Love Blossoms" (front and back cover, and binding)
2.  "Forever" (4" scallop circle)
3.  "Love Letters" (rosette flower)
4.  "Things I Love" embellishment.
I also used a piece of  Stampin Up ribbon, Dress It Up Glitter lips buttons, Reflections glitter heart, a misc. pearl, and I inked all the edges of this project

    I have a soft spot for cute places to write my many lists! I wonder if I should colour code my notebooks? hmmmmmmm ...

    Love your project Susan!

    Very pretty! Definitely SO much better to look at than the drab old black cover! Love the rosette and the glittery lips and heart. :)

    Great project! Did you use anything special to glue the edges of the paper to the notebook cover?

      I used "red line tape" around the edges of the notebook, and used glue stick in the middle...I have found glue stick give great coverage! Sand egdes a little, ink, and done!

    I fell in love with that blue paper with the heart flowers, too, and couldn't bring myself to cut into it! It's still sitting here, obviously waiting to go onto a composition book! Love it, S!

    I liked your composition book cover. Did you use UHU glue to the front and back? I always pay too much money for already made books and this is a great idea!
