Make your mark

 Hello everyone, 

Today I have a little decorated notebook to show you. This was lying around on my desk and I though it was a nice little project for a cold and dark afternoon. 

Here's how I did it:

First I glued some washi tape on the spine because I didn't want to see the red. I covered it with another layer later because the red still came through. 

I used a small gelli plate and this stamp, some Versafine Clair ink and white acrylic paint to make these little backgrounds. The one on the right didn't come out very well so I resorted to stamping the same stamp over the top with the same Versafine Clair Inks. 

Next, I stamped the background a little. 

I also added some more washi tape ..

I stamped these poppies and cut them out. I used some MM patterned paper that has been in my stash for years..

I cut them out and adhered them to my book covers.

I dug out an older stamp set for the sentiment and stamped it on the same paper. 

I added some doodling and some splatters.

and glued the covers to the book. 

It turned out ok I think although I don't love it but these things happen...
