Mini Notebooks For Sophie :: Free Printable

Have I ever mentioned that I love pretty notebooks! I have a collection a Green Room and Galison Green Notebooks. I use them to keep track of the family budget, notes, blog stuff, phone numbers, etc. I love them because they are cute, fun to use, and help keep me organized. The only problem is that Sophie is love with my notebooks too. I will open up a new page only to find a sticker and a mess of swirly scribbles. She is in such an artist phase right now, and I love it! But, in order to save my notebooks and still encourage her creative art I spent yesterday afternoon making her a set of her own notebooks.

When the notebooks were finished and I handed them to Sophie she was head over heels in love. She held onto them all afternoon and even started to fill a few pages with Easter stickers [Target, dollar section ... Love!] I have a feeling that these notebooks will make it in the church bag, shoved in my purse, spilled on, wore out, and loved by SJ.

I would love to share these printable notebooks with you today!

The PDF File includes: 4 cover design and the inside pages.

Instructions for Making your own Mini Notebooks: [completed size is 2" x 3"]

1. Print the Cover Designs on heavy card stock, I used 110lb white matte paper. Then print the inside pages on regular printer paper. 2. Cut out the Cover and the Inside pages and fold them in half, hamburger way. 3. Make your notebook as thick or thin as you want by adding more or inside pages. 3. Attach the cover and inside pages however you would like. I took the simple route. I just stapled it on the edge.

Quick Valentines Project + Freebie

 

Here is a quick and easy Valentines Day Gift idea! Get a box of Altoids and decorate it for the holiday! You could use your paper stash, a digital design, fabric, or a mixture of all three! I decided to design a printable cover for the top of my Altoids box.

First I picked up some Altoids at the store and measured the top of the box. I made my design 3.75″ by 2″. I printed the design out on cardstock, cut and glued it on! Now I am going to tuck the Valentines Altoids in my husbands backpack as a special surprise!

Some Extra Ideas:

  • Take out the Altoids and fill it with a favorite candy
  • Buy the Mini Altoids Box for a teeny tiny surprise
  • Use bakers twine around the outside for a cute finishing touch
  • Round the corners
