* All mini-composition books are not identical in size. Sometimes the length is 1/16" off and the front and back panels are slightly off. I start with the Cherry Cobbler cardstock size and after I glue it to the book, I trim using an X-ACTO knife. If the sizes vary greatly, small adjustments are needed for the black and patterned paper.

I offset the sentiment for for a different look.
The tassel is homemade, I used DMC 5 100% Cotton embroidery thread. DMC's cross stitch thread is too thin. Stampin' Up!'s baker's twine would definitely work as well as crochet thread. I lost my original instructions on how to make tassels. I used this VIDEO but modified it; practice, practice, practice.
Adorable projects, I love the magnet closures on the Mini Composition Notebook and the Gift Tag is too cute. Thanks for sharing your awesome work with us.
