Popsicle Stick Notebook with The Twinery and Poppy Stamp

Who says the popsicle stick crafts are for kids?! I have a big cup of these on my craft table at all times. I use them for various things; stirring paint, holding hot glue down, whatever I need. I never really thought to use them though in a project until I came up with the idea of using them to bind a notepad. After I was done binding it- I loved how cool it looked and wanted MORE of the popsicle sticks. So I made and entire cover out of them and bound it with Twinery twine. I love how the Poppy Stamps look over the imperfect surface of the sticks.

I used three signatures, and used my twine with a tapestry needle to attach to the spins stick

The covers are glued directly onto the first page and last page of the signatures

the covers are made by lining up 10 sticks, taping them down with wash tape or low tack masking tape, then gluing the crosswise sticks to support them. After it dries, simply weave the twine through each stick and tie at the end.

I used Colorbox Crafters Ink. It is specifically for wood and other hard to stamp surfaces
