my little recycled sketch book

2010-01-08T03:00:00-05:00

I found this cute little book in my to-be-recycled-or-turned-into-a-journal stash. The covers are made of metal (bonus) and the pages are blank (bonus2). Eureka! When I saw it, I knew I had just found my 2010 Sketch Book.

I used bits and pieces of old K&Co paper and leftover ribbon for the front and back covers, as well as inside the covers. The letters are more Thickers (love 'em!).

There's a lot to love about this book. Because the cover is made of metal, I can use magnets to hold bits and pieces of inspiration photos (or bills as is the case here). I added some SU Chunky Glitter to the magnets with liquid glue. And when I don't have anything to clip, the magnets act as the middle of the flowers on my paper.

I also love the fact that it can fold and stand on its own, like an easel for easy viewing while I create the project.

I love my little book of sketches :-) Do you have one to share? Share your pictures in the comment. I'd love to see yours.

Happy Friday everyone! CeeCee

Oh and today, I get to play/work with my friend Gen and baby Sara. Ooooh, I've missed that little bundle of love. It's been more than 2 weeks since I've seen her and I can't wait to cuddle up with her while... I let Gen do all the work, hee-hee!

Happy Friday everyone! CeeCee

cupcake 18

Mmmmmm, cupcakes. It's a food group, right? If it's not, it oughta be!

Someone ordered birthday cards from me for 3 girls that are turning 18 this month. They are to be mailed out so I had to keep it on the "thin" side... that's difficult for me to do sometimes, especially since I love ribbon. I had those Basic Grey chipboard cupcakes that I was hoarding. Since my resolution is to use up the ton of stuff I have, I went for it! I even cut into my AC Thickers (gasp!).

To jazz everything up, I added Stickles to the numbers and on the cupcakes. I love the pink/yellow/brown combo.

Oh, and I cut into a fresh new Basic Grey pad of paper (double gasp!). I'm almost over hyper-ventilating and I'm sure I'll feel better in a couple of days. Since I'm waiting for my new Stampin' Up! products to arrive I decided to play with other brands of products. So you'll see a variety of things here for the next couple of days. Also, I'm still trying to make a big dent in my scraps of patterned paper and I wish there were more hours in a day to play with that.

I'm still in the process of putting together 3 new clubs and I'll update on that soon. Because of everything that's happened in my personal life in November and December, I'm way behind on everything but I'm starting to see some results.

Have a great Thursday and I'll see you tomorrow! CeeCee
