Red, White, and Blue Blog Hop

Welcome hoppers! :) You should have arrived here from Jordan's blog. If not, you might want to go back to the beginning at Amanda's blog.  For this hop, we all created a new project with a red, white, and blue theme. I did not go with a patriotic theme, but I did go red, white, and blue. Here's my project:

I created a coptic stitched notebook. If you've never done coptic stitching, it's really not that difficult to get the hang of. I learned by watching a youtube video and am now hooked. I started out with these cheap-o folders from the Dollar Tree:

I trimmed them down to size, covered them with pretty paper, inserted some printer paper to make my signatures, and stitched away. The folders were actually quite cute to be cheapies and I probably could have used them without covering them..... but that would just make entirely too much sense. lol
