ArtfulINKables Saturday

Hi There - Welcome back to another ArtfulINKables Saturday! I have a non-card project for you today! An altered pad cover thingamabobbie!!

Images by AI, A Friendly Light (one of the newest releases!)



I simply took a long note pad (one designed to stick on your fridge) laid it down on my paper and scored where I wanted the folds to be. I then trimmed the edges and embellished the front. It's a simple project and came together pretty quickly using such a great set. I stamped the shell border in chocolate chip ink. The focal image was stamped on white paper and colored with alcohol markers. I distressed the edges with an edge distresser and some close to cocoa ink. I also used on of the EK Success border punches on the side. Some twill ribbon, gingham ribbon and a large button finished things off. I made two simple ties out of twine to keep the covers together when the pad is not being used.

Thanks for checking in...
See you soon...
