Harry Potter Spellbook Journals
Here’s what you need to make Harry Potter Spellbook Journals:
- Composition books
- Acrylic paint
- Foam brushes
- Gold paint pen
- Ballpoint Pen
- SPELLBOOK printed page
- Painter’s tape
- Brown distressed ink pad
Open a composition book and lay it flat with the cover exposed.
Use the acrylic paint and foam brush to paint the notebook one color. You might have to add several layers to completely cover the book.
Once the book is dry, print out the SPELLBOOK letters and tape them to the top of the journal. Trace the letters, pressing hard into the book so that the outline of the letters is indented into the cover.
Go over the indented letters with the gold paint pen. You can also add some decorations!
Rub the outer edges of the notebook with the distressed ink pad, then add some “aged” lines to the cover to give the book that antique feel.
Now your spellbooks are ready for all your notes!
