Hello everyone! This is my latest mini notebook...





Step by step

 I took some envelopes and made a booklet...

I cut papers to add on each page...

I used adhesive tape...

 One yellow paper on each page...

I coloured each page...

I took a canvas cloth and glued it down on cardboard...
I painted it using acrylic paints...

I used some stencils...

I used 3D liners (glossy, metallic ones)...

I used the same stencils on the inside too...
Finally, I added some gesso...

I took a ceramic tile and glued it down on the cover's surface...

I cut off the cardboard excess...

I painted the cardboard as well...

I painted some thread...

I linked the pages to the cover using this thread...



I attached a cotton thread to the cover...

Thanks for stopping by...
Have a great time!

I am joining these challenges:
