When I saw THIS tutorial over at CraftStylish, I knew I wanted to try a variation of it on this little notebook. Its a 5.5 x 3.5 pocket sized notebook that I've been keeping track of my calories in.
I'm not a big fan of the buttons, so I played around with scraps of red, green, and white felt and came up with this.
I got to practice a little embroidery and a blanket stitch around the edges too. I love it!
Very quick project...it took me just an evening in front of the tv.
The neon pink felt is feeling a little lonely, but I'll find a use for it yet!

What a darling project! Love the embroidery details!
That is so cute, Christina! Ok, ok, I'll have to get an embroidery book next!
how clever
Christina, That is so cool! I love Owls and notebooks! Perfect!
Seriously, that is one of the cutest things I have seen!
How cute! My daughter loves to collect journals, and diaries, and fancy notebooks, so she would just love that one. Looks like you're getting quite prolific with all the crafts - first crocheting, then knitting and sewing, and now embroidery too!
totally cute!
Can you tell I'm just catching up on your blog since I've been away? Anyway, I love this! Super cute. What a great idea to spice up a notebook.
