Can you believe it's already the 3rd week of the Waltzingmouse Saturday Sketch Chellenges!?! Be sure to check out who won from last week and the deets for this weeks challenge over at the challenge blog. Are you ready for the next one?!?! Well - here it is!
The ribbon is 11". Below you can see how I put Scor Tape on the lower section of the ribbon (about 5 1/2") just make sure the untaped part of the ribbon will fold over into the notebook and have at least 1/2" extend out the bottom (see my first pic above).
I folded a little bit around onto the bottom inside of the front cover to hold it in place before I adhered the inside DP. I had the tape long enough to adhere to the front cover but not past the top edge.
Here you see the ribbon/bookmark sticking up and the inside of the front cover panel completely covering the little ribbon piece on the bottom. I also stamped this fun stamp "Soothe Away the Day"image. (The white leaf is part of the DP - it looks pretty doesn't it!?)
And here is what I stamped on the inside of the back cover.
These are the measurements for the panels in case you would like to try this on the same size notebook.
3 1/4" x 4 1/2" Composition Notebook
Outside covers - cut 2 - 2 7/8" x 4 1/2"

Beautiful project!
What a great project - I love the ribbon marker and appreciate that you explained it (for simple people like me!) It's embarrassing sometimes how I try to imitate what I see and go about it all backwards! LOL I love the colors, the sentiments are perfect (congrats on that!!) This is VERY useful and pretty!
I love your projects! My GF wants to make one of these on Wednesday. I will be back to CASE!
I am definitely in love with this set Julia - very cool project!
What a magnificent project, Julia!! Love that DP and thanks for showing how you put it together! Would love to try one sometime.
Love this Julia... great idea.. I am a list maker too.. sometimes I even find them so I can use them.. this would help with that situation... great idea... I just might make a couple. Love the paper too.
What a great notebook/journal Julia! Love your choice of DP :)
I love the altered book julia-thanks for the step by step-I have never made anything like this-love how you worked the sketch
Lovely way to use the sketch, and your colours are gorgeous, and great to see all of that stamping in there!
Julia, Thanks for sharing the tutorial on how you made the lovely composition book journal. I have a few to make and I'm glad to learn how you added the ribbon "bookmark". Great idea! Your journal is BEAUTIFUL!!! Thanks so much!!
