Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here with an altered notebook using handmade papers created with the Arnold Grummer papermaking kit. Select a sheet of paper from any of the handmade papers already created and adhere it to a notebook.  Cut off any excess and corner round the edges. Stamp around the notebook with a wordy stamp from Just For Fun Rubber Stamps.  Picking up on the green particles in the paper, I inked the notebook with green ink.

I finish off by adding additional color as needed. Thanks for stopping by.
