DIY NOTEBOOKS Challenge

Just one more little notebook before bed  ;-)

Of course it's an inside photo, so the colors are not as pretty as in real life.  I really like this flower in the PTI Rosie Posie set and use it quite a bit on my cards.  The inside papers are chartreuse, aqua, light grey and white ~ matching the cover.

DIY NOTEBOOKS

Such pretty little gifts! You can see all of the amazing ideas posted this week on MIM.
Check out Erin's video here.  Of course, she makes everything look so easy.  

I used some smaller stamps from PTI's Beautiful Butterflies set 
and made a little tab out of washi tape for a closure on this one. 
I ran out of score tape a while back and didn't want to take the  time to run to my favorite craft store (45 minutes drive), so I used double sided tape to hold my colored (light-weight) computer papers in place and brought the back panel of cardstock paper up and around    :-)

There are so many reasons to give a small gift to someone ~ 

don't you think?   What could be better than something homemade :-)

Check out Erin's video to see how easy these wonderful little notebooks are to make.

Erin has a video up this week with a great little gifty project idea!

I love having these little note pads in my purse, so I thought I would try the DIY challenge HERE.

I think they came out good enough to add as "a little something extra" in the next gift bag I give   :-)

I masked off PTI's Rosie Posie bloom before inking the leaves on the cover of my notebook to create a little depth and dimension.

This is another card for the PTI Blog Hop using the color combination of Aqua & Melon.  It's too late to be taking photos outside so the colors are not as close in my picture as they are in real life.

Such a pretty color combination, eh?

My base card stock is more of a lighter melon than it photographed this time~the sun is getting ready to set and it looks like dusk on my patio.  I like this Rosie Posie flower in an Aqua Blue, which also did not photograph true to color  :-(

Oh well, I still like it and I'm sure I'll use this combo over and over.
