I've Got It 'Covered'! Part 2

Okay, I admit it, I AM HOOKED!  I love covering these notebooks!  I really like the composition books too, but these small notebooks have quickly become my favorite.  In terms of flexibility and creativity- the sky is the limit- you can make just about anything work!  And you can put your own spin on them too!  



I think my signature on these books is the wrap around ribbon and the closures that I put on each book.  Using the Cricut (or punches), I can create a custom clasp for each book that suits it perfectly.  I also found that some inking on the seams of the book completely transforms it.  I love this effect!

Another thing I really enjoy doing with the books is personalizing them by either monogramming or placing a name on the front (Gypsy anyone?!).  I have quite a few more books waiting oh so patiently to be covered and I wouldn't dare disappoint them!  More to share soon!
