How to Make Faux Leather Personalized Notebook Covers with a Cricut

Learn how to make your own faux leather notebook covers using a Cricut. In the video I'll show you how to personalize the cover with a custom letter or text with heat transfer vinyl to complete this easy faux leather DIY project.

You can make this project with the Cricut Maker, Maker 3, Maker 4, Explore Air 2, Explore 3, Explore 4, the Cricut Joy Xtra or any cutting machine that cuts heat transfer (iron on) vinyl. This pattern is too large for the Cricut Joy.
