Altered Notebook

This fortnight's challenge at 7 Kids College Fund is Monochromatic. Well a challenge for me, and I love a challenge, but then I thought about it and said hey why not make the Principal a book, She is always writing in a notebook and why not make her a special one for her birthday. Since the spine of the book is already brown, I went with browns. ..So here is my rendition of the 7 Kids College Funds Monochromatic Theme. I used Congragulations Tilda that you can find HERE.



Another Angle:

I love those journals too. They are so fun to decorate and if you're like me you can't have enough place to write things down. LOL Gorgeous project Debbie! The coloring is lovely and there are so many cute embellishments. It's great! While I'm here I'll go ahead and thank you for playing at The Kraft Journal this week. :-) Hugs!
