Altered Notebooks

On my last PTI order I ordered the new notebooks, love them! and the new Take a Note stamp set. I finally put them to use to make some notebook pads. The great thing about these is that I made a pocket on the inside of each one to hold a corresponding gift card for the recipient. I did stamp on each page of the notebooks!


This one is for my MIL who loves to garden.



This one is for my friend who is a quilter.

Finally, I will give this to a fellow teacher who helps me out a lot.
