So let's see what the Design Team have been making this week...
Martine - Did you know that witches are have to go to school as well? So i made this notebook.
I used Ravella Witch and used some Halloween papers as well : Halloween Trick or Treat paper bundle 1 . Then I put on a broomstick { it's from Tim Holtz} , a big black paperclip and some black mosquito netting...which is very handy for this kind of occasion.
Ana - This notebook is one of my favorites so far! I used a detailed Science Girl Polkadoodles digi stamp, printed large for extra impact, and colored it with Ohuhu markers. The cover from the Happy Cactus Succulent collection, paired with solid cardstock for the spine. For the pages, I cut standard 80gsm A4 paper in half using my trusty Cutterpillar Pro. Everything is bound using my thermal cinch, which gives it a neat, book-like finish—perfect for stacking. I finished the cover with the colored digi and a cute Polkadoodles Work and Play Design Sheet for a little extra cutesy fun.It’s simple, colorful, and functional—wish I had these skills of notebook making and cutesyfy-ing back when I was still in school!

Kaye - Going back to school? Then why not vamp out your notebooks to make them cute and interesting? This week, I made a notebook from scratch and decked it out looking like a locker making use of printable background from Noodle Panda Plains and Reach for the Stars Rebel decorating her own locker, I also sketched out her school essentials on the floor, with this kind of decorated notebook, who would lose it?

Kim S - Hi everyone! We were asked to decorate a bookcover this week with a school theme to get ready for September. I chose this cute new digi in the store which is from the new You Did It bundle - hope you like it!
Nina - I had the joy of creating a personalized school notebook for my friend’s daughter – full of little details and designed with love in a playful vintage look. I used different sizes of note-style die cuts, layered slightly offset for a fun and dynamic effect. For the background, I combined the brown polka dot digi paper from the "Bee Buzzy Polka Dots" set with the pink-and-white striped paper from "Bee Buzzy Stripes & Gingham" – such a sweet combo. The highlight is the cool girl from the "Knowledge is Everything – January" digistamp set – wearing sunglasses, with a flower in her hair and a book in her hands. I also added a die-cut paintbrush and paint splatter for that creative vibe. And of course, the perfect quote from the "Messages and Quotes – Wanda" set: "Born to sparkle, forced to work." I’m sure the little schoolgirl will be so excited to start her school year with this one-of-a-kind notebook.
Ana - Back-to-school vibes - nerdy but still cute and cool! I made these coordinating mini notebooks using Polkadoodles’ Studying Wanda digi stamp, Happy Cactus Succulent printable papers, and fussy cut elements from the Work & Play 12 – Scientist/Geek Girl sheet. I colored Wanda with markers and bound the pages with my Mini Cinch — easy, fun, and perfect for notebook lovers or little gifts! 💖 Instagram: @my.cat.and.crafts Facebook: My Cat and Crafts
