The Beau Chateau Designer Series Paper is a favorite of mine right now - and I needed some little gifts for my granddaughter and her Australian friend whose family is visiting. So I altered some composition books. I asked on the SUDSOL list (Stamping Up Demonstrators Sharing On Line - see link in right side bar if you would like to know more about this great sharing list), about the best way to adhere the DSP to the composition book. Most advice was to use Stampin' Up Anywhere Glue Stick (104045, page 206). I then was adviced to use my brayer ((101610, page 203) and run it over the glued on DSP. Worke3d like a charm!! And, BTW, composition books are on sale everywhere - good time to stock up!
Here's the one I made for my granddaughter
I used a piece of DSP 9 11/16" x 7" for the front. The back U added two inches,m so 9 11/16" x 9". This wraps around the front to cover up the black binding.
I added a strip of Marina Mist cut with the Lace Ribbon Border Punch (122362, page 211) and cut out a large scallop circle in Marina Mist with the Scallop Circle Bigz Die (113468, page 222) and a smaller from with the Scallop Circle #2 Bigz Die (113469, page 222). And I added Emily's initial "E" cut with the Serif Essentials Alphabet (113464, page 223) in Marina Mist.
The second book I altered is this one
I used the nice frame piece of the Beau Chateau DSP and just added the "S" in the center cut in Pink Pirouette. Also the Lace Ribbon Border adds the finishing touch.
