High Class

Notebooks are one of my favourite gifts to send and receive, whether mini sized for handbags or larger sketchbook size. I like that something practical can be tailor-made to suit the person you are making the gift for and after all, everyone uses notebooks.
The stamp used is Crafty Individuals CI-285, a beautiful, generous sized stamp.
This stamped so beautifully onto stained fabric, a defined image which is not always the result when stamping directly onto fabric. As this is quite a large stamp I decided to keep embellishments to a minimum adding some dyed lace, measuring tape tied into a bow and a MOP button. To form the notebook I covered recycled greyboard with canvas which I painted with emulsion paint in my absolute favourite colour, Camisole Pink.
