BELLA ALTERED NOTEBOOKS

My name is Deborah....and I am a Bella-aholic. Group shouts back..."Hi Deborah". I know, I know, almost every project or card I have posted lately is Bella related. I can't help it, I try to resist, I take my other stamps out and oogle (is that even a word?) them from time to time, I even play with the other stamps a little, getting a little ink on them, even going so far as coloring them in. Then I feel guilty, like I am abandoning my dear Bellas. I am not strong and I fall off the wagon and go right back to the Bellas. I admit it, it's a sickness.

So here are a few notebooks that I finished last night, and yes they have Bellas on them. ;) This first one I made for my 4 year old niece. She picked out the paper on her own. I think it is from K&Company but I am not positive. Then she squealed when I showed her the Tinkerbella stamped image. Shhh....don't tell anyone but I have the same reaction. The primas are from the Prima Calypso tin collection, Costa Bright. The chipboard letters are from K&Company. I also added stickles to the stamped image. I made this second notebook for Caitlin. She has quite a few child safe websites that she plays on...like Webkinz and Build-a-Bear...that she needed a notebook to write down her passwords, usernames and website particulars. So I created this for her. The stamped image is Clickabella (I received her from a Bella stamped image swap...which is where most of my Bellas come from as I only own a handful...for now) and the background paper is from K&Company, called Sparkly Sweet Blue Paisley Glitter. I used the same collection of primas that were mentioned in he above notebook. I added tabs from my SU round tab punch.
