Welcome to Day 4 of The Ton’s 4th Anniversary blog hop! The Ton is celebrating 4 years this month and Effie has introduced 9 new designs for this release. There are some free gifts with purchase promotions ongoing. Head over to The Ton Stamps’ blog for more details.
Take a look at my new inspirational notepad:
I totally love, love this stamp set! 2019 is going to be a great year for me and this stamp set called Hustle and Grind is full of amazing sentiments to really get me in gear.
Here’s how I created this notepad:
Use photoshop to create a lined template.
Print out 25 sheets to create a 50 page notepad.
Use We R Memory Keepers Dial Trimmer to perforate each page at the top.
Cut each page in half using the same tool.
Now its time to stamp the sentiments on the top and bottom of each page using the MISTI.
Once that is done, cut and trim a black piece of black cardstock to 5.5 x 9.5, scoring at 8.5 and 8-5/8.
Place the line papers under the folded score lines to line everything up.
Use We R Memory Keepers Power Punch to punch holes through all of the layers.
To really jazz up the notepad, use Dritz jean buttons to secure all of the layers.
Fantastic right!! That is what I said after I finish making it.
Let’s take another look:
I can’t wait to use this notepad at my desk at work. Motivation for me everyday.
So what do you think? Another great release and Happy 4th Anniversary on January 15!
