I'm trying to make this notebook style document but I can't align background image and notebook frame. I tried everything but I can't find the solution, and that slightly unaligment is driving me crazy.
Also, I would like to add different quotes on specific pages (even pages for example), but I dont know how to do that, but my main problem is aligment of backgorund image and notebook.

% I've create a boolean to control the presence of the diamond (and subsequently
% where the page numbers are placed. If "true", the diamond will be rendered and
% the page numbers will appear in the diamond. If "false", the diamond will not
% be rendered and the page numbers will appear on the bottom of the page. See
% the code where I call the booleans to modify this behavior. Overall, I've tried
% to divorce the formatting for rules and diamonds from the placement of the diamond.

I should point out that this is for personale use only, and that notebook style code I found at this link: This is the link where I found notebook code, but i slightly edited it
Here is the outpot, both left and right page:
