Freedom to create!

Well, I love that CMIT have given us the opportunity to create a few projects a month using whatever media we like!

Who wouldn't want to work for someone like that?

This is my first project for July.

You guessed it!  It's a notebook.

Of the Quickutz dies, I used 5 dies from 3 die sets.  Santa's Workshop, Tags and the 12" Measuring Tape die.

Supplies:

• Quickutz / Lifestyle Crafts Tags Die (REV-0301)
• Quickutz / Lifestyle Crafts Santa's Workshop Peppermint Binder (CC-SHAPE-062-3)
• Quickutz / Lifestyle Crafts Santa’s Workshop Nesting Ovals

• Stampin' Up Whisper white ink pad
• Jute Twine
• Kraft Paper from Aussie Scrap Source
• Scenic Route Paper Co ‘Sweet Linen’
• Stampin' Up white cardstock
• Yellow, Black and Blue cardstock brand unknown.
• White gel Pen for stitching
• Coloured buttons and Bling

Cut out 2 Peppermint folder sleeves from the Santa’s workshop for the front and back.

Cut out measuring tape.

Pierce holes in the card around 3 edges then join the dots for faux stitching.

Emboss part of the cover & use a sponge to soften the edges with Whisper white ink.

Cut out additional peppermint pages for internal sleeves and decorate.

Cut ovals, sand & hand draw faux stitching.

Write on label & adhere with foam squares.

Bind with Jute twine and Viola!!
