Pencil Notepad Tutorial

Pencil notepads to adorn your desk.

Pencil notepads to adorn your desk.

I was trawling through Pinterest, as one does, and found this darling stationery by Alma of Nicole’s Classes, and was inspired to make a teacher gift with it for back-to-school.  A while back I made my daughter a pencil pouch, which I then claimed as my own (she didn’t like it until I wouldn’t let her have it), following this tutorial, and I thought I could do something awesome just like it for a notepad. The problem was, the notecards Alma created were on 1/3 of a sheet of paper, and after printing it out, I thought it was a bit small, so I asked if she could pretty please make a version on quarter-sheets of paper with maybe quarter-inch margins all the way around for trimming? and she happily obliged!  Awesome, right?  Go here to download the design to print out for your pencil notepad, and then follow this handy tutorial I made just for you:

 

About sappling

When God created the world, he did it in six days and rested on the seventh. I always wished there was just one more day in the week, an eighth day just for me to pursue the thoughts in my head and translate them to the physical world. There are only seven days, however, so I steal my creative moments in between being a mom and my work binding books and making boxes for clients all over New York City. I love working with my hands, learning new things, and I'm here to share those lessons with you. There are only seven days in a week. Why not eight? Guess I'll ask when I get there.
