Easy Journal Cover & Giveaway!



Arnold Grummer makes creating pretty journals a breeze. 





SUPPLIES: 
Arnold Grummer's Angel Wings Botanicals
Duck Tape, Adhesive, Flourish stamp, Clear stamping pigment, gold embossing powder, ribbon, metal word, alcohol ink, metal embellishment, and brad. 

INSTRUCTIONS: 
1. Make sheets of hand made paper following the instructions in the Hand Made Paper Kit. I always add some additive and cotton linter for stronger sheets. The botanicals are pretty too!
2. Use the duck tape binding method on the "Make your own book" kit instructions. 
3. Cut hand made paper to cover the cardstock cover provided in the book kit. 
4. Cover seams in different papers with fabric ribbon, which goes all the way around the cover. 
5. Stamp flourishes with clear pigment and emboss with gold embossing powder.
6. Attach any metal or decorative element.
7. Cover the silver metal word with alcohol ink and glue in place. 
8. Assemble the book according to the instructions.

THAT'S ALL!  The book kits make book-making fun and easy! 

I'll be giving away a book kit on my blog, leave a comment on this project there for a chance to win an Arnold Grummer's "Make Your Own Book" kit. 
Craft on!
