Wonderfully Wasted: Notebook

I have a few more Wonderfully Wasted Wednesday ideas ;). Today's Washi tape wasting is making a quick and cute notebook and matching pen.

I started with a 5 X 8 legal pad and a basic BIC pen.  I used 2 different coordinating Washi tapes.  I put one strip of each on to top to cover up the binding of the legal pad.  I then wrapped the pen diagonally until completely covered with one color and then the lid with another color.  I must admit it was then difficult to keep the pen cover on, as it did not want to cover the additional layer, but still a very quick and cute idea.  A perfect gift!
