Velvet Meadow note book cover – video

June 7, 2026
2 Comments

7 Jun

Hello! I hope you are well. I found a lovely little Gratitude Journal recently that I just knew would make a pretty little gift, especially with a Velvet Meadow note book cover and pencil holder. Here’s the first one I made with Cloud Cover card…

The Velvet Meadow designer series paper is so gorgeously tactile with the awesome flocking detail on it. And a little bit goes a long way. I didn’t feel the cover needed much more decoration. So I simply used the Friendly Foliage bundle with Peaceful Pine ink to add a panel that the little closure tab fits under. And this is what’s inside…

As well as the gratitude journal I added a little pocket and aptly popped a little Pocket Hug inside!

I had another of the gratitude journal so I recorded a video while making a slightly different version of this Velvet Meadow . I’d love you to check it out…

YOUTUBE TUTORIAL

If you enjoy watching my video, I’d love you to give it a thumbs up and leave me a comment too. If you haven’t already subscribed to my channel, make sure you do so when you’re there; so you don’t miss out on future videos.

Here’s the Velvet Meadow note book cover I made in today’s video, alongside my original version…

And here’s the contents for this one…

Which one do you prefer? Cloud Cover or Basic Beige?

    • score on the long side at 4″, 4-3/8″ and 4-3/4″
  • Basic Beige card for the note book holder = 6-3/16″ x 1″
