Wishing You the Best and Mini Notebook


I have managed to sneak a bit of crafting time in, around packing and then unpacking up my house for new carpet.  After this post, I will be packing up my craft room, as it is due for the new carpet tomorrow.

I fell in love with this card by Kim when she made it at my house with Marybeth's stamps and dies.  I was not smart enough to cut and stamp Marybeth's flowers, but made my own version of Kim's card using The Sweet Life roses.


I used colors from ColourQ #302.


Keeping with my goal to try to do all the Make it Monday's this year, I have a quick little mini note pad that I made for Make it Monday #220.  Patterned paper is American Crafts and the PTI supplies are Beautiful Blooms #2 and Journal Card dies, the notepad paper and Doodlie Do stamp.  I am also entering this at Simply Create Too #91 Anything Goes.





Thanks for Visiting

    What a lovely tribute to Kim's card! I'd seen hers and loved it, and you've made one that is just as wonderful in its own way. And that notepad is darling. Sweet, big bloom, and I'm mad for those colors. Bev

    And there you've got a sweet little notepad and I am going to make some notepads tomorrow!!! Have been wanting to do some for quite some time now, but just didn't get to doing it!!!! And today I've decided that tomorrow will be the day and now you have inspired me to stick to my intention!!! Your little notepad is so sweet!!! I love the polka dots and the chevrons and the flower is just so beautiful!!! Such a lovely little gift for someone special!!!
    Have a great day and hope that the packing up of the craft room doesn't take too much time!!!

    Your case of Kim's lovely card is every bit as gorgeous as hers! Your roses, resplendent in the colours you've chosen, set atop the black lines, are breath-taking! WOW! Your note pad: simply adorable! I'm sure I'd never write in something like that - way tooooo sweet - but I'd sure have plenty of them on hand. They make me smile!

    Smiling, Joyce ... saw Kim's delicious card just a little while ago (you can tell I'm so behind!) and loved it ... and now I'm loving yours ... those bold black crossing lines are a fabulous backdrop to those beautiful roses! Sweet little notebook ... love the doodlie do leaves ... bowing to your achievement of doing all the MIMs this year ... not sure I've even done one yet! Hugs, Anita :)
