Altered Notebook


Hello friends.
Want to share with you all an altered notebook I made for a recent swap. You can view another altered book made by me here.
This was a hard bound book which I covered with some coordinating pattern papers. Colored the chipboard cutout with markers & coated with glossy accents. Love the perfect finish the metal corners render to the book.


A handmade bloom with mulberry flowers in the same shade highlights the distressed doily.



This is the back covered with this absolutely fantastic paper designed by Divya of Yelling Yellow.
