NO Pressure Project

I have a lot of notebooks...some i keep and some i use. I find it hard to throw away used notebooks.I just can't. It doesn't matter what the price is...i just love it. I guard them with life...i kid you not!

Since i keep used notebooks...i decided to alter it this time...At least i have more reason to keep them.
I am in no rush in finishing this as i have made this project as something for me to do everyday. I need to be inspired all the time. I think this can help me.
This is a "No Pressure" project. I just open the book grab what i can and stick em'.

When i am done with this project...i won't feel guilty in keeping it.


The cover is not done yet...i'm sure i will find something to stick later. In fact all the pages are not done yet.


 Supplies:

Old Notebook
Old Issue of Creating Keepsakes Magazine
Old Dictionary
A lot of leftovers from other projects.
Old Photos/receipts/tickets..etc

I tore those pages and projects that i like from the magazine...
 


Old photo of my niece that i found hidden in one of my many boxes of stash/scraps.

Cute! 

That crayon...i cut it from those little sheet that was inserted in the magazine.
 The key and the slot (if that's what you call it) were given by my friend Amelia.
 

I love this page...actually i love the photo.It was taken last year...can't wait to go there again this April...yay!





Took this photo last year too...i love this book even more as it brings back good memories.



More pages to go...more pictures to put. 

So guys...don't throw your old notebooks...turn them into an album and journal...

This is a really fun project...like i said...

'A No Pressure Project'
(grab this...grab that...stick this and stick that!)

Hi Mariam...thank you so much for stopping by. I'm still working on this notebook.

Letterpress is great but one needs to be really patient with that. The process takes longer but when you see the finished product...you will forget the lengthy process.
