Cool Compositions & Blog Candee Winner!

Since school starts tomorrow for my girls, I thought it would be very cool to make my 16yo an altered composition book. Anyone who has kids knows that at least one of these black and white notebooks will be on their school supply list. They make them in neon colors now, but wouldn't it be so much cooler with a stamp?

I got the idea for this one after receiving an awesome digi-stamp from Carol at Altered Expression. This was one of my first attempts at using a digi stamp on anything other than a card, and it took a little bit of playing around since my printer ink runs when wet, but I think the end product is fab and I learned some interesting new techniques along the way!

I was also inspired by Gutter Girlz End of the Month MOJO: stamping with every day items using acrylic paints. This notebook received an all-out corrugated cardboard and leaf treatment!
