Felt & Ribbon Notebook Cover |Keeping it Real

I love creating notebook covers They are hugely versatile and with the abundance of free stationary and clip-arts you have on the Web nowadays, it´s really easy to create cute, customized gifts.

For this one, I started with a piece of hedgehogs themed ribbon I've had in my stash for a while.

Then I used Canva to create matching notebook pages. If you want to use those notebook pages too, click here for the pdf file.

After printing and cutting all the pages, I used a binder to turn them into a nice little notebook (if you don't have access to a binder - I usually borrow from a friend - you can just staple the pages instead).

Once the notebook was finished, I measured the pieces of felt needed for the cover. I opted to make it in two contrasting colors, with the ribbon glued over the seam.

And last but not least, because these ornaments were made using only materials I already had at home, they are a lovely contribution to my destashing efforts this year. See below my other destashing projects:
