In spite of the fact that I already have plenty of little notepads and tablets, I wanted something new and special to jot notes on during a conference/retreat that I’m attending this weekend. So last night I sat down and whipped up this little silver striped notepad.
I made a lengthwise cut right down the middle of an 8.5×11″ sheet of kraft cardstock to make the cover, and then did the same with three sheets of printer paper to make the interior pages. I drew stripes on the cover with a silver marker, folded everything in half, and then stapled it all together at the top. I trimmed a little excess white paper off the bottom and then rounded the bottom corners with a little corner punch.
My notepad only has 12 pages, and I hope to fill them with lots of great ideas this weekend.
Happy weekend, friends!
