An altered note book

Hey girl's, im going to show you how i altered the front of this note book today.

Im so a list person & im always having bits of paper lying around, so this note book is literally for all the "notes" that i make, at least now they'l not get lost or accidently thrown away!!

First, i tyed a knot in my cotton.

Then i started to weave the needle through the middle of the ribbon.

Pulled it until it ruffles to my liking, & using fancy brads, i pinned them to the book page at either end.

Now im going to add any decorative pieces/embellishment's that i have & like to go on this book, i used bling frames, the letter "a" for altered & some other decorative stones.

I also added "star dust" stickles to the rose brads for extra sparkle!

& some MM butterflies with some more rhinestones to finish
