Curious About Basically Bare?
Two of the hottest places in the
papercrafting world are meeting up in a duo
AUTHENTIQUE PAPER
&
BASICALLY BARE

Now, you won't be hopping from my blog to another, instead
head on over to the Authentique Blog to see the line-up for the day :)
With back-to-school in mind, I wanted to create
a couple of special teacher gifts.
For the first project,
CURIOUS OWL NOTEBOOK,
I used portions of the Basically Bare Album.
On the front, clear cover I hand-stitched a few buttons
to the bottom, outlining the shape.
I also machine stitched around the perimeter
so that the edge would be defined.
For the inner cover, I layered the cardboard sheet and felt scalloped sheet
together and then embellished with an owl dressed in
Curiosity patterned papers and stickers.
Next, I took 8.5 x 11 copy paper and trimmed the
sheets down to a 5.5"W X 5.25"H; reserve the scraps.
Using the 'index-tabbed' chipboard page as a guide,

line up the papers with the top and punch holes.
Insert rings that come with the album and tie on colorful ribbons.

I had one remaining piece of the album left: a canvas sheet.
I just had to use it!

Take the scrap pieces of copy paper and cut in half
so that they measure 3.25"H X 5.5"W.
Fold the canvas sheet around the paper to form a pocket;
machine stitch around the edges or glue in place.
Decorate the front as desired and then string
through a length of ribbon and tie at the top to create a useful hanger.
You may also attach a magnet to the back so that it may be hung in that fashion.
