More altered notebooks to share…
This one I made for Christine because it was a classy, basic Canvas Corp look. I just love the Black and Ivory patterned paper line. I made a mini banner with triangles on the twine, along with the black bumpers cut in half to create a scalloped look on the top of the Canvas triangle. 
I used a heart punch and cut the top part of the heart off to create these triangles. A quick way to make a mini banner! The circle tag is made of Chalkstock and so you can write different words on the front.
I used the Black and Ivory Ribbon Stripe for the middle of the Canvas Triangle and I turned the paper to get the diagonal look! Think “outside the paper” to turn it into a different look!! This is a picture of the paper that I used, it isn’t on a diagonal…cool, huh!!
The pink zebra reminded me of Michelle, she is so bright and fun that it just matched her! We have several colors in this zebra patterned that jazz up any project! One of my favorite new Canvas Corp products is the Tissuestock, available in white, ivory and kraft to go along with the paper lines.
I made this cluster of posies using the white tissuestock {see below for details}!
