A Sticky Note Book - Decorated With Handmade Paper

Hello, everyone! It's Nancy here with a new project share!

Today I've decorated a Sticky Note Book with a stamped and embossed piece of handmade paper. 

Here's What I Used:

Materials Used:

Arnold Grummer - Sticky Note Books Starter Kit;

Small Piece of Handmade Paper;

Stampendous - Wisteria Cottage Stamp Set;

Stampendous - Embossing Ink;

White Embossing Powder;

Nuance Powders - Blue, Green;

Paper - K & Company;

Small Piece of White Cardstock;

Offray Ribbon - White.

Here's How I did it:

1. Following the instructions on the kit, I assembled the Sticky Note Book. 

2. Using the embossing ink, I stamped the cottage image onto a 2 1/2" x 2 3/4" piece of handmade paper. I heat embossed it with the white embossing powder. 

3. I sprinkled the blue Nuance powder in the sky area, and the green Nuance powder in the grass area. Then I sprayed the piece with water until it looked as I wanted it to. I set it aside to dry.

4. I matted the inked piece with white cardstock.

5. I wrapped a piece of ribbon around the book, making sure it was long enough to tie in a bow. I adhered it in place on the front and the back.

6. I adhered the matted, inked piece in place on the front of the book.

This project came together really fast,

and it was lots of fun to make!

I like the way the embossing looks on the cover
