composition caddy tutorial

Earlier this week I showed you my first try at a composition caddy and said a tutorial was coming.  Since I already had it written and just needed to add pictures it went pretty fast and I'm happy that I can share it with you today!


Version 2.0 was made with a Michael Miller Tammis Keefe print, a Lizzy House 1001 Peeps, and a Moda Sweetwater newsprint.


The tutorial is for those standard size composition books we all know and love.  I wanted to be sure to tell you about a great Primary Journal version for kids by Mead.  It has a space for a picture at the top and lines for writing at the bottom; great for that budding author/artist in the house!


ETA: I replaced the really huge file with a smaller one!


I'd love to know if you make one, and of course give me a shout if you find 
anything wrong or have questions!

I love the bags! Your mom made me a reversable one for with a christmas design a couple of years ago. I use them for everything including diapers etc.
