Welcome to the Altered Composition Book Blog Hop! If you were visiting me and would like to participate in the hop you may start with Super JOY!!! If you have arrived from talented Martha, then your in the right spot!
Now onto my project, this was my first time doing an altered composition book, so my first one bummed out and this is my second attempt...lol! Before I get started, I can't go any further without giving my blogging buddy Gloria of Girlia's Cards props! She was recently in a blog hop and I happened to see her ribbon technique that I had forgotten about so thought I would give it a try! Thanks for the inspiration Gloria! The cartridges I used for my book are Plantin Schoolbook, Storybook and Forever Young.
The mats are from the Storybook cart and they are cut at 7.75 and 8.57. The ribbon is resting on the border that I cut from Plantin Schoolbook cart and it's cut at 9.75. Now of course since I just love making cards, I just couldn't resist a matching set.
Now it's time for you to hop along to another one of my favorite crafters, fabulous Tammy!
Hey don't leave quite so fast, I do have blog candy I will be giving away the Kid Quotes clear stamps from INKADINKADO!
Thanks so much for stopping by and have a blessed day!

I found you blog from cardstv, you commented on my first time post. Your composition book inspired me to make one for my kids to doodle in. Keeps them busy at sports practice and doctor appointments. Would love to win the stamp set. I love the quote about being a good friend. It would be perfect for my sister in law. She has helped me out so much and it would be the perfect quote on a card for her. Thanks for the inspiration!
so super cute!! tfs!
