Kristen Simmonds, of Serendipty Scrapbooks, shares a cute project for altering notebooks. 
Please read below for details. More info and photos can be found here on her blog.
“Never through away your altered notebooks again! This idea came after reading about iron on vinyl.
So this notebook cover was created to slip over my composition notebook, and when it’s full and I want to throw it away, I can keep my art. Now I don’t even have to bat an eye about making more covers to change with the season or my new personal favorite scrapbooking papers and embellishments.
More detailed images and instructions on how to create this slip cover are on my blog.”
Kristen,
Very nice! I love it!
