Fun & Fancy Composition Books

Here's a creative and easy way to make those boring black and white composition books pretty and fun! I use them for my morning Scripture journals or travel journals, but you could use them for anything...

First, pick out some coordinating papers for the front and back covers. I also pick some to go under the Bible verses or quotes I put on the front.

1. Lay the cover open on top of the corner edge of the back side of your cover paper and mark the bottom edge with a pencil and the side edge halfway through the black tape seam.

2. Cut it out with scissors or paper cutter. Round edge corners and glue onto cover.

3. You can add mini brads to corners and washi tape to the seam to help it stay anchored.

Add any embellishments you want to the front.

If you want to add a ribbon bookmark, cut a length of coordinating ribbon. Staple and tape to the back cover.

I put some tape over the staple inside

Then repeat steps 1-3 with the back cover.

There are so many ways you can make these unique to your personality or purpose.
