You can easily make this butterfly notebook from items lying around your home. Plus, it would be a nice handmade gift to give someone for Valentine's Day too. (It even fits into our 10 funny pun-y Valentine's Day craft series!)
Funny Pun-y Valentine's Day Craft 2: "You set my Heart aflutter" Butterfly Notebooks!
You can see my first funny, pun-y craft here (Craft 1: "You Rock My World" Rocks).
To make this butterfly notebook, I folded a paper in half to create a butterfly template. Then, I traced the template onto a cereal box, drew the design with a Sharpie marker, and used a normal marker to color it in. Then, I folded several pieces of computer paper into quarters and easily traced and cut out several slightly smaller butterfly shapes. Then, I stapled the notebook together.
Now comes the neat part. When you close the notebook, you see a butterfly with it's wings closed. Then, you can open it up to reveal a butterfly with fully stretched wings (as well as a pad of paper to write your thoughts on.)
I think this would make a pretty fun gift to give to someone this Valentine's Day! (I'm keeping mine in my purse to jot down notes.)
