You might know that I took part in the first Hero Arts Artist Trading Card (ATC) International swap that was held recently and when I received my ATC's I checked into each ATC creators blog/FLICKR photostreams to say "thanks". I came across Sarah's blog and saw she had an amazing tutorial on how to create Altered Notebooks - just perfect for those little Christmas gifts. I made some last week and they were a hit!
I used the Cosmo Cricket - Jolly by Golly Range of cardstock and added fimo buttons which I had made with embroidery floss/ribbon. I used tall jotters from Tesco which worked beautifully - if you want to see the jotter pad tutorial click here.
Thanks so much for stopping by.

Hi Deirdre, great notebooks must checkout that tutorial.
