Anyone watch football last night? It's the end of this year's preseason. The regular season begins next Thursday! And college football will begin in earnest this weekend. Think I have football on the brain? Well, I do. That and fall...
Here's today's challenge inchie. It looks like a book but actually it's not. Check it out...
It really is a notepad from which you can pull off one page at a time. I got the idea when I saw an article on using your scrap paper to create a notepad by using a padding compound. Well, I didn't have any padding compound but I did have Alene's Fast Grab Thick Tack Glue.
So, I punch out lots of one inch squares of scrap paper. Lined them up on all four sides. I used two bull clips to hold the glue side. I applied a generous amount of glue and spread it even. When dry, it was just like a note pad...
For the cover, I used a piece of thin cardboard cut to size, scored, folded and glued to the notepad at the top only. I used a permanent black marker to finish the sides next. Then glued on a fabric cover using Mod Podge and adding the name and decoration.
I was even surprised at how easy this was and how nice it turned out. What do you think?
Thanks for dropping in...
See you tomorrow...
Remember it's a three day weekend...
