This is a posting to share with you the notebooks that I customized for many a friend and family.  You basically just start with a composition book and a plan.  I used primarily scrapbook paper, Beacon 527 multi-use glue (to attach paper to cover), embellishments such as beads, stickers, etc, and mod podge (as a protective overlay).  Though sometimes, depending on how heavy the embellishments, I had to use the 527 as an adhesive to and an overlay of some of the embellishments as well.  BUT FIRST, my final installment of GOLDEN CHILD Delishness, this is Kai, my newest (child of Bailey and Maizey) addition to my Golden Family:

And, without further ado:

Again, with a little imagination and information (about the recipient), you can create something usable, inexpensive, and FUN to make!  Have a MAGNIFICENT MONDAY,

SABBATICAL OVER: Klipboard Kraft Gifts

So I set up this blog and then forgot ignored neglected it.  Truly, I probably could have posted one project just from the past for each day that I haven't posted anything.  In keeping with my starting post, I'll begin with a picture of my female Golden Child, Maizey:

Okay, getting back on track, this posting is to share with you a few of the clipboards that I created for some of my friends/colleagues/teammates about two or three years ago.  I believe that they were back-to-school gifts, but they very well could have been Christmas or Just Because gifts too, I really don't remember.

Anyway, I basically just snooped their style somehow and then ran with it creating a clipboard that incorporated their hobbies and/or interests.

Feel free to steal any ideas and use them; it was nothing more than a few ideas, information, clipboards, paint, and stickers/embellishments.  :)

I had a lot of fun making these to suit the personal taste of each teacher and have made a whole bunch since.  Stay tuned for tomorrow's posting where I customized a notebook for a whole slew of people too.  ;)  Have a SUPER SUNDAY,
