Hi everyone and Happy Monday! I hope you all had a nice weekend! We had a weekend full of organizing...my girls' closet, underneath their beds, drawers, cabinets.....Yeah, you get the picture! Wish I could say I was the organized one, but that would be a lie. Hubby is very organized and kicked our butts into gear. As much as I hated doing it, the house looks fabulous!
Anywho, I made a little project that has been on my mind since Jessica released the new There She Goes set, Loads of Fun. My Mom used to always say when I was younger "I have such a long laundry list of things to do". When I saw the set and the "Laundry List" sentiment I was inspired!!
Not long ago I purchased these long note pads from Papertrey. I knew they would work perfectly as a "to do" list of sorts! I made a cover for the notepad and used some of my new favorite dp, Love Me Do by My Mind's Eye to decorate the cover. I stamped the larger laundry basket from the set, colored it with Copic markers and cut it out with Circle Nestabilities.
I also combined this project with this week's TSG challenge brought to us by the Uber talented Jessie Rone. The challenge is to use three different embellishments on a card or project. You can only use three, but can use as much of those three as you want. My three are ribbon, adhesive gems and sewing.
To find out more about this week's challenge, you can check it out here. The winner of the challenge will win a $5.00 gift certificate to the TSG store!
Thanks for stopping by! I hope you'll check back tomorrow as the Verve sneak peeks will begin!! Toodles!
This is too cute, Jackie! I love the strips of fun MME paper and the image and sentiment are perfect for this!!
