It's Crew Member Saturday and I can't believe that we are already in June and having our 6th guest designer post of the year!
Today we have Andrea who created some awesome notebooks in bright colors. I love the way she collaged these together!

Hi Andrea here!
I am addicted to notebooks and decided to embellish these beauties with some fabulous images that I stamped, colored and cut into strips.
I started by cutting Strathmore Mixed Media paper to the same size as my store-bought notebooks. I painted the paper with acrylic paint.
On separate pieces of paper, I stamped some images with Ranger Black Archival ink and colored them in with oil crayons and watercolors.
Once my stamped images were colored, I had a lot of fun cutting them into strips and pieces and gluing them onto my notebook covers. I then sewed the covers onto my notebooks with a sewing machine.
I used a positive sentiment from the Leafs stamp Andset to add onto one of the covers for a nice final touch.
It was also very therapeutic to spend some time coloring!
All in all, you can never go wrong with these stamped images or a pair of nifty re-done notebooks!
