Mini Notebook


Mini composition notebooks covered with Close To My Heart Typeset B&T Dous.  Quick and easy project you can do in just a couple of hours.  I found the composition notebooks at the local dollar store for 3/$1.25.

Typeset duo paper cut to 4 1/2" x 6 1/2"
Typeset duo banner cut to 4 1/2"

Attach duo paper to backside of composition notebook first.  I find that double sided tape or glue dots work best.  Pull paper to front of composition notebook and attach to notebook.  Attach duo banner to top of front cover overlapping the paper previously attached.  Cut off any access paper and enjoy!

Cute little gift to let someone know you're thinking of them.

Reindeer Games


Cute little reindeer pair. I added some glitter glue for noses, googly eyes and a bow for the Mrs. I also used a white colored pencil to add some character to the ears and mouth. Then I used a plain black pen to outline the mouth, ears and add "stitches" to the outside of the reindeer. The red interior shows through the pretty edging. A little button and some Merry Christmas paper for the background and you're all set.
