Fancy Notebook

I was trying to think of what we could give to Mike's nephew Braxton for his baptism. I wanted something that he could use and it would be only his. So I thought a journal would be great for him at this time in his life. I found this blog for these fun notebooks. So I thought I'd make one. It was simple enough decorating a composition book. I really didn't follow the instructions, but they gave me an idea of how to do it. I really like this because there are so many decorative papers out there you can personalize it to anyone. This was my first attempt so it took about 3 hours. I think it turned out pretty good. Now that I have the basics of what to do, I can do it again and hopefully it won't take as long. It was fun to figure it out.
