Fix Your Eyes

So I was going through my cabinets and found this notebook and figured I should do something with it, who knows how long I have had this sitting around waiting to be altered. I personally do not use notebooks much but figured it is a good back to school item for the ABC Challenge. I used some black/gray paper that had some awesome swirls on it. Then I took some crackle paint (black) and put it in sme areas- heated it up and scuffed it up. Then I took some grunge die cuts and covered them in black again- spritzed the entire book with licorice spritz. I do actually love the way the book looks. I thought I would enter again in ODBDSLC26 as I did use die cuts and the sentiment is ODBD.
Have a Blessed day!

Love the altered notebook. I know what you mean, I have boxes of goodies waiting to be altered. Great job on this one, the black and white is beautiful.

This turned out so well and has given me inspiration to cover the one I have in my supply box. My oldest granddaughter saw the one I made a few years ago and realy liked it. I have been looking for just the right paper to cover her's so your black & white may work for her...
