I’m so so glad that you showed your oops. We all do them! I was starting to believe you were too perfect. ❤️ Lol🌹
As many of these books as I have altered, I’ve never considered painting the spine. Genius! Thanks!
Miss Sherry. Often times I am looking for crafting ideas, and of course, because I am subscribed, you come up on my page. Let me tell you, please; life has not been very enjoyable of late. When you come up, I love clicking on your instruction. Your voice is soothing to my soul, therefore uplifting to me. Thank you for your ray of sunshine. God bless you.
Hi Cheri thank you for showing me how to make bows and flowers without having to purchase bow paper maker. You save me so much money. I did not realize I could make this without spending money needlessly. Usually I always think out of the box but I was thinking about this and then you video came up and thank you so so much 💐💞🙋🏻🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🙏
Love it. I use to write on one side stories. Then I will flip the book upside down on the back and write another story . That book would work perfectly for me.
That upside-down page will work perfectly for you Janet.
I cannot thank you enough today. I went to Hobby Lobby and got the most beautiful paper pads. They were on a terrific sale a $19.99 pad for $4.99 not all of them but a lot. I came home and make a book and it came out amazing. Thank you with all my heart for this wonderful idea.
You are so welcome!
Good idea to paint the spine of the notebook. Blends in with the cover paper. 😃🌹🌹
Sherry,
You certainly could have edited the video with your ooops. But you left it and your statement of life is so important. There are ups and downs, forward and backwards. Thank you so much. Beautiful project.
What a fabulous way to cover the ole composition book! So easy, and using beautiful collection paper makes it very beautiful, and strong. Bravo! Thank you for sharing this for us!
😊 You said you're an upside down girl to my cure...that was cute, and I completely understand it. I was looking at those books wondering what I could do with them but passed them up. I'll get them now! Thanks again!
I like the painted spine … it probably adds just that tiny bit of extra strength to the cloth spines.
As for the upside down comments … I can totally relate … I e counted 5 art journal pages that I’ve done that are upside down in my journal this year. I get myself all turned around when I don’t stamp, paint or stencil with a right side up background.
Thank you for sharing. These turned out quite lovely
I love that you aren't afraid to show us your accidents as well as your perfect finishes!!! This is such a great, inexpensive gift idea!! Thank you for giving us all of you time and ideas!
I homeschool my grandchildren, this is perfect! Now grandma will have a beautiful log book as well 🥰
Painting the spine a different color is a great ides.
They are so pretty. I thought it was so cute that you put it upside down. It is so something I would do. Nice to see that I am not the only one.
Wow you really dressed up for the party! Absolutely great share. I see a little shabby chic inspiration. I’ve made many of these in fabric and lace. The scrapbooking paper is a new quick and easy idea. 👍🏽👩❤️👩💜👸🏽
I think we all do the upside down thing, no worries. Inspiring video, thank you!
I am so excited to POSH-i-fy some composition books! Although inexpensive, these will never look cheap!
I love this idea for all my lil Neice’s and nephews for back to school
Oh my, these are perfect. I have so many journaling family members. I love how you share so much and on every level. You are a true gift from God and I thank the heavens each day for sending you. Lots of love
Hahaha I glue stuff upside-down 😂 all the time. Yesterday I glued some pockets upside-down and I just said 'oh well that's for my upside-down thoughts'😆 Thanks for the awesome videos!
Love this! Depending on your paper choice, I see a lot of possibilities -- kitchen journals, faith journals, kid's diary, etc. Thanks for sharing!
Love this. Had to laugh when I saw the backside was upside down.
Your paper/ journal notebooks are so inspirational. I am a member of a bible study group of 17 ladies. We have had so many answers to prayer in the past 2 years and this would make a beautiful prayer journal. Thank you for this. I can do this and economical as well. I would decorate the inside flap as well and add Pockets for prayer requests. Thank you Sherry
Don't know how I missed this video! It's great. Had no idea you could paint the spine! Thanks, soo pretty!
Update... I just finished 2 of the composition books that I will be giving away. You truly inspired me. I bought my comp books at Walmart for.10. What a find. It has been fun and challenging to make each book different. Thank you again for inspiring me to do this. I used Beacon Tacky Glue from the dollar store on the inside. It works well no warp.
Don't ever underestimate your ability to inspire
Me too....I have a bunch of these composition books. Can't wait to see what you're gonna make. Stay safe.
I've made journals before, but never thought to use paint on the spine. Such a great idea!
Wow! I have altered many, many composition books, and I never considered painting the spine. Excellent idea! Thanks for sharing!
You are so welcome!
YEPPP! 🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️. This is the one I have been waiting for! I TOLD my sister I was going to find something to do with that stack I have been collecting!! 💙💙💙
Love seeing graphic45 papers used on something easy and beautiful!
This project will be so nice for my grandkids when they start school.
I love it! "Life doesn't always go in the right direction". I have some oppsies I think I will sell at my craft fairs for half price (for people with a quirky sense of humor). Maybe put this saying on a banner as embellishment. Thank you for sharing your God given talent with us.
From boring to beautiful 🥰...definitely noteworthy❣️
This is 1 I can do. 😁 I've never seen these painted. What a great idea. 😁👍 I really should make some of these up for my friends and family, that could use a daily journal. I know what they love, so, I could make each one with colors and co ers they love.
Oldie but goodie. Still in style. Thanks Sherry.
Lovely idea. I just love it that you did an upside downer... We've all done it... so funny X
I like the painted spine instead of using paper. That's for the tip.
I truly love you Channel even when things don't work out you make them work I thought I was the only one to put paper on upside down did you truly are an enemy firing artist
Lovely project i was watching saying dont stick it its upside down. But good to see we all do silly things at times
I was curious to see how you would handle the rounded corners on the cover, but you didn't use an inside liner. I guess that since the covers on those books are not as thick as chipboard, you could just add a paper liner and slice off the excess with your finger knife without worrying about folding the paper over the corners. If someone was really concerned about the edges of the cover showing, those edges could be painted to match the spine as a first step. I love how you put the back cover on upside down...when you do something like that, I always think about the song "Let it Go" from Frozen, and it makes me smile. It's wonderful that you point out your mistakes to us, because I think it helps encourage us to enjoy whatever we do, no matter what. I look forward to your videos every day, even when I miss the chat in the morning!
From one upside-down girl to another, beautiful AND unique (wink-wink) lol
What a great idea to paint the spine of the composition book. They are both wonderful! TFS💞
Another easy project! I decorated some mini composition notebooks with cardstock paper. In stead of painting the spine, I used washi tape in coordinating colors.
What can I say .....Gorgeous. Nice paper selection. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe.
Perfect project for those large print papers or napkins. Love it!!!
Sherry no buddy prefect and that's okay😁.
Like you just the way you are💙💛. Thank you for great idea for young girls to make. Have a Blessed and Safe Day
I woke up, did my walk, got my Katee-Bleu’ off to school, and going to enjoy some videos from your library that I may have missed. Have a wonderful day. I love to write stuff down too. This is pretty. 🌻🌕☕️🎵🎶 Good Morning Sherry, Happy Friday your way. No matter how you feel, may you have a positive day. I am giving it my best, Jennifer
So pretty! I’ve had books and magazines that you had to flip before. It’s not a mistake but part of the design!
I love your composition books, they are so beautiful ❤ made.
I'm about to make some of these for my grandchildren. (And then a few for myself, love, love love this!)
Great idea doing the spine in paint, Sherry. Love those papers! Have a nice day. Xx
Morning Sherry,
Fun tutorial! Absolutely amazing and I loved it. Very "Noteworthy"!
(Loved the pun).
I enjoyed how you really did turn something ordinary into something extraordinary. Cool. 💙
I love these, but I'd cover the inside of both the back and front and add pockets and add a string bookmark, so you can find your place easy.
I've made these in the past but never painted the edges before. Add a matching pen and it makes a nice gift. Thx
I've been covering composition notebooks for ages and I never thought to paint the spine. Another fabulous idea. Thanks for sharing it with us.
looks beautiful; you make everything look so easy. Never considered painting the spine, but now I will; thanks for sharing.
I’ve never thought of painting the spine.. love the idea, thank you 🌺
Great way to make a boring notebook spectacular!
Oh can't wait gonna b a good 1.. Have a bless night sweetie
this is my favorite altered journal tutorial, hands down ❤️❤️
Thank you so much 🤗
ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS! BEAUTIFUL! Have a wonderful day! Love that paper!
Thank you so much!
That paper is gorgeous!
I purchased 4 of these books the other day. Now I know what to do with the spine. Can’t wait to get started. Great project, Sherry
Love this! I need to go grab some composition books from Target! Thanks, Sherry!
Sherry the paint was something new and such a great idea. Can’t wait to try this. Thanks for sharing!!!💜
I love this, thank you. What a fun thing to do with my grandkids. I love your videos. Thank you for sharing them with us.
This is gorgeous 💘. Love the idea of painting the spine. Genius.👍
Good Morning, Beautiful Queen all I can say is "WOW" another beautiful creation on a budget 😊😇 I've done some before for Bible journaling but will be doing some again loved the painted spine. TFS I enjoy your videos. Blessings & Grace
You are my morning binge regularly ❤️ Another project to add to my list. Thanks Sherry!
Thank you so much Kimberly!!!! For some crazy reason YT is not showing you as a subscriber. If you are, will you unsubscribe and re-subscribe so that it will register with YT. THANK YOU!
Painted spine - genius!
I love these journals. The combo of paint and paper is gorgeous!
I have a few mini composition books I’m going to do this too! Never thought of painting the spine either. TFS💜
Such a pretty journal. Love catching up on all your DIY’s!💜
I'm Going to pick up some books for 🎁 gifts!!
these are absolutly beautiful...yet so simple...thank you for sharing
Painting the spine, never would have thought of that! Thanks Sherry!
Love it! Even the upside down!
I love that your tutorials swing from easier/ beginner projects to the very complex. No matter what level, I still always learn something new!
I love that your back is upside down!!! Now you have one of those journals you can use for two things. Write from the front about something, then flip it over and maybe use it as "another" notebook for your quarterly goals or a prayer journal.
Hi Sherry! Happy & Blessed Monday. I love covering comp books & the little ones too💕 I love how u did the spine, it’s something I never thought of doing🥰💕. I’ve made over comp books & given them as gifts & they’re always received w/love, & now this will make them even prettier🥰💕 love hugs blessings & prayers, Donna 🙏🥰💕
This is amazing! Great job. I bet you could put some stickers on the back to make the image look like its upside. You could also journal both directions, so both are correct!!
I think i will put a codinating piece and a pocket on front and back love these
What a great idea! I just picked up a few of these and was debating how to cover them. Thank you! Love the idea of painting the "spine" and embellishing!
I like to decoupage (my style) these comp books... this is a great way to improve them for ourselves and others. Love it!
I loved this. Especially the painted spine. Loved you imperfection too.😁
Thank you so much 😀
Beautiful altered composition book! Beautiful papers! Tfs Hugs and blessings, Christine
Such an easy project with beautiful results!
Oh I have a bunch of these, can’t wait to see what you come up with. 💕
Good morning Sherry, I just love this project. I made one of the little gift card holders w/envelope but haven't decorated it, but wanted to let you know I used the plastic snaps you had used in a previous tutorial months ago & it worked great! Have a wonderful & blessed day my friend!
Good morning Sherry! Awesome project! Thanks for sharing ❤️
Good morning Sherry. I was late to the chat this A.M . I’m finding it harder to get up at 5. But I always come back to watch you. So pretty, thank you for sharing 🥰🌵
Oh I “jones” for composition books. Love them. Can’t wait for summer sales and always snatch them up when they are 50 cents. I’ve decorated before but never liked the spines. I tried finding coordinating duct tape but never can find the right color. Great idea to paint the spine! Will try that. Might mod podge over the paint to help it not crack off after too many openings. I just bought some carta bella (Echo Park papers) Vintage packs that had some larger prints. Going to make a couple for some friends who are into antiques and everything vintage. They will love it! Tfs! Hugs from Ohio
I found sparkly duct tape at a Dollar Tree near me on Sunday. Hope you find some near you.
You are so amazing and so smart on all your videos. You are such an inspiration. You give me so many ideas for swaps to do for Crafting Gals Just Wanna Craft Group. Thanks for sharing. Such gorgeous paper. God Bless.
I have bunches of composition notebooks, I love the way you transformed it into a beautiful journal. Have a blessed day, stay safe 💕
Just found you and totally loved this DIY! you are amazing. I am in the process of making prayer journals out of these composition notebooks and my brain went blank and then I came upon your CZcams and I'm grateful. Thank you. I liked and subscribed
