I recently used decorative paper in my Erin Condren planner. I got a bunch of orders for altered planner using this pretty black and white decorative paper. I decided to use the scraps like stickers. Here is a quick tutorial on how I did it.
Supplies:
- Decorative Paper: Scraps work well for this. You can use any decorative or scrapbook paper you have.
- Double Sided Adhesive Paper or Tape: I like using tape instead of glue to make them feel more like a sticker. You can also use sticker paper.
- Scissors: You need scissors or a cutting board to cut the paper. A cuffing board will make a straight line easier.
- Ruler: You might also need misc supplies like a ruler and pencil.
Instructiona:
1. First, you will want to cut your decorative paper scraps in to the right size for stickers. You can check the sizes for Erin Condren Weekly Vertical layout here
. If you have questions about other sizes, you can let me know in the comments and I will try to find the sizes for you.
These stickers work best for full size boxes, but if you try other sizes, let me know in the comments.
2. Add strips of the double sided tape to the back of the stickers. I found that two to three strips worked fine for sticking them on. If you are using double sided sticker paper, attach your decorative paper to the sticker paper and cut to the right size.
3. That’s it. You can now use your decorative stickers in your planne.
I only tried this stickers with the black and white paper, but I am sure they will look good with any paper you use. If you try these out, leave a comment or use hashtag #mythreadofthought
