This holiday season I decided to make gifts for everyone in my department... All 22 people... For my Manager, Director and the other 2 level II Auditors I made Personalized Memo books...
These books I picked up at Odd-Lot for a pretty reasonable price. I then covered each of them with designer papers. Some with Cosmo Cricket Dutch Girl and other's with Daisy D's. To fit the pages to the cover I used my spiral punch to fit the paper under the wires... Because these books will be used often, I use double sided sticky tape that I purchase from Tayor @ Taylored Expressions... I highly recommend this tape. The price is extremely reasonable and boy does it hold tight. I
then embellished... The letter J and the letter T were both from the Cosmo Cricket Dutch Girl collection. To add a little body to them and to make them a little stronger I covered them with versamark and clear embossing powder. This adds strength to them. The remaining letters were all rub-ons from different manufactures. The ribbons are either Stampin Up Chocolate Satin, Blue double stitched (or) Martha Stewart twill ribbon. The flowers are all by Prima. These were a hit...

Lisa, these are beautiful journals. I'll bet they were very much appreciated. Love the paper you used as the flowers. Thanks for sharing.
