My Cluttered Corner

Hi All! Rebecca here! The Simple Stories team had the pleasure of swapping goodies with the Tombow adhesives team this month.I received an assortment of Tombow adhesives and a set of Dual Tip Markers. For my first project I created an altered notebook. I bought a composition book from the Dollar Store, pulled out my Simple Stories We Are...Family collection and the several Tombow adhesives. I got to work changing it from a plain old black and white notebook into this...

I used the Tombow Mono Liquid Glue to cover the front and back with patterned paper.

I used Tombow Xtreme to apply cards and smaller pieces of paper.

I added layers to the front, back...

and inside.

I love how quick and easy it is to turn a plain composition book into a personalized gift with some pretty Simple Stories paper and stickers and some good adhesive.

I also created a layout this time using both the Tombow adhesives and markers.

I stamped the hot air balloons and colored them in with the Dual Tip Markers.

I used the Tombow Stamp Runner to adhere elements to my page. I used it as a roller on the larger pieces like the one on the right and as the Stamper to stamp out a square adhesive on the smaller elements like the small cloud.

For some extra dimension I used Tombow 3D Foam Tabs.

I like how they come in two sizes for different size embellishments or die cuts.
