Another altered notebook from Target! (and I promise I'll put them away for a while...
) I'm using handmade paper from a stationary store in historic Clinton, NJ - comes in BIG sheets like wrapping paper.
Lockhart's Itty Bitty Ice Cream cone was stamped onto a white Inchie Square and colored with Copic markers. I added Prisma Glitter (Hero Arts) to parts of the ice cream using a glue pen, and allowed to dry. Then I covered all parts of the ice cream with Ranger's Glossy Accents. Edged white Inchie Square with a Krylon gold leafing pen and mounted onto black cardstock. I just shadowed the left side of the cone to give it a dimensional look. ...actually the image is off-center a bit and this helped pull your eye to the left so you would not notice...
The Inchie Squares are premium museum quality matboard - they add the element of height to the Inchie, and are a dream to color on!
Binge saying and foam are from 7gypsies (Yummy stickers). I drilled a hole with my Dremel through the handles of the utensil set and strung them with Robin's Egg waxed linen.
This notebook from Target did not come with a mini pen - I added one using black elastic, and eyelet and E-6000 adhesive. You can pick up these mini pens at places like Staples or Office Depot.
Summer mix Art Flowers decorating the front are from Ellen's store, along with the yellow bling flower centers. Double sided satin ribbon finishes off the journal spine. A perfect idea journal for that fabulous chef in your life!
