This punch is available for $18 on Amazon If you have a punch and can make your own covers you don't even need the notebook It's been a great way to use scraps and supplies I'll likely never fully use up anyways. I've done some sketching and drawing in a mixed media notebook I bought last year. I also purchased a 12 color Reeves watercolor paint set at Michaels for about $6 and had fun playing with it!  KAL News   Slay the Stash 2018 Each month you can declare a skein of yarn to knit/crochet/weave to its very end.
