Spooky makeover!


I was having a plunder in my box of notebooks
(yes I have an addiction lol),
and at the bottom I found this poor neglected one.
The cover was badly beaten but I had only written on
two pages!
So time for a wee makeover!



I used papers from Indigo Blu called The Creepsville Gazette.
I covered the back and front with it and for the spine
I added a piece of lace from my stash which
I ran my ink blender brush over to age a bit.
I stamped the image from an Indigo Blu set called
Spooky Grandpa, perfect for Halloween lol.
The sentiment comes with the set as well.
I even covered the elastic to match.


Spine.

Back.


On the inside covers I added some old dictionary
pages which I inked up then added a leftover strip
from the same paper pack.

This photo was a bit over exposed but it is as dark
as the back inside cover.
So I have a nice Halloween themed book to use now.

I would like to enter this into
