Crafty Notebook

Good morning everyone! Today is Anything But a Card (ABaC) Monday over at Bugaboo and this week it's my turn to share a project with you. So...for today's creation I decided to alter a 5x5 notebook that I found in the $1 bin at Michaels! I used the Dottie Crafting image! I just love this image and knew it was perfect for my notebook! My image is colored with Copics to match my flowery K&Co. dp! The notebook is 100ct...plenty of room to jot down some of my favorite sketches, colors combos or clever sentiments! I don't get out of my comfort zone that much and make ABaC projects ...but I love how this turned out and I had a lot of fun making it...so I'm sure I will make more!! Thank you for stopping by today and have a great day!

My crafty notebook fits into the following Challenges:
Colour Create-3 fruits (banana, kiwi & watermelon) Create with Connie and Mary-Inspiration #139 Lexi's Creations-Flowers Simply Create-the power of Flowers Stamp Something-something with Flowers Stampin' B's-use a Flower on your card Stampin' Sisters in Christ-3 or more buttons Sweet Stampin-Oh so Girly Tellen's Place-Lets see some buttons!

Supplies used
: $1 notebook, Copics, K & Company dp, nesties, silk flowers, paper flowers, buttons, felt ric-rac & gems
