Papertrey February Blog Hop Challenge
February 25, 2013
Papertrey Ink’s February Blog Hop Challenge is challenging us to use Monograms for our blog hop project. I spent the longest time trying to organize my stamps around my monogram!
I made a very small notebook. With a whopping four lined pages. Very small, and not to mention, very useless 😛
There are four lined pages in the notebook, each decorated similarly to the cover. The book is binded by stitching with a piece of brown felt adhered over.
I really enjoy the ombre stamping instead of using copics for shading. For me, the blending is much smoother with inkpads than trying to attempt copic shading.
Monogram Note Book – Supplies:
Cardstock: PTI (white)
Stamps: PTI (Rosie Posie, Natural Beauties) Mama Elephant (Midnight Letters)
Ink: PTI (True Black, Harvest Gold, Summer Sunrise, Berry Sorbet, Raspberry Fizz, Blueberry Sky, Enchanted Evening, Simply Chartreuse, Ripe Avocado)
Others: Hemptique (White Hemp Cord Twine) Brown Felt

I love how you said it is useless 🙂 I don’t know about useless, but it’s a whole lot of gorgeous. I love that velvet border on top and the stamping is so so brilliant!

haha – I’m with Wida, the fact that you called your notebook useless is hilarious. It’s very pretty, and I want to know about your ombre inking too!

This is gorgeous stamping! And you’re a crackup! No one should write on such pretty paper anyway!
February 25, 2013 at 11:52 am
Yes, what a GREAT idea!
And too perfect to jazz up rather boring pages otherwise! I just love this and always love journals so this is extra special to me!
Great job!

A lot of pretty things that make me happy are useless LOL – love this stunning little notebook!

Stunning! Love your notepad! What a fantastic idea!
February 25, 2013 at 9:51 pm
What a beautiful project!!! Absolutely fabulous!
February 25, 2013 at 10:53 pm
Beautigul and adorable tiny notepad! It would make a great coupon book or little pad to write journaling for layout or for a special message so certainly not useless! Thanks for the inspiration.

So pretty! Love the coloring of your flowers and they pair perfectly with the Natural Beauties leaves.

You’re hilarious – the notebook is very small and useless. Haha! It’s gorgeous the way you decorated it and I can’t imagine anyone wanting to use it when they can just admire it! Beautiful stamping, too.
