This fancy little number is really just a plain old $1.09 composition book in disguise. I read about this technique in an old Martha Stewart Living magazine a couple of years ago, and finally decided to try it out. The key players in this project are the glue stick, book binding tape, x-acto knife, and decorative paper of your choice.
I have plans for the same technique with a different aesthetic. Stay tuned.

where did you get the book binding tape?
sorry, I see it’s a link 🙂 what size did you use?
i actually got the orange colored tape from the paper source http://www.paper-source.com/cgi-bin/paper/item/Poppy-2-Roll/2903.014/4717222502.html. the 2″ size works perfectly.
p.s. i’d love to see a picture of your creation after you’re done. 🙂
Ooh so pretty! Love how simply you can transform an ordinary notebook into something so lovely! Thanks for joining in with the #GetYourCraftOn #Stationery challenge!!
