Paper Playtime Ch#80 ~ Anything Goes Altered Notebook

Good Monday morning.  I hope this finds y'all well and that you had a wonderful weekend.  It is the 5th Monday of the month and when we are blessed with one there is always a one week challenge at Paper Playtime "Anything Goes".  For these challenges I try to create something other than a card just for a change. 

For those of you that do not know this about me, I am a list maker ~ I make "To Do" lists, grocery lists, lists of cards I need, lists of design team commitments, and so on and so on......Because I always have a list on the go I try to make them all in one spot so that I can access them easily.  When I first started paper crafting I made myself an altered notebook to put all my lists in one place.  Yesterday I used the last page in that notebook. The first list or note in it is from 2007 ~ it lasted me five years. Here is a pic of it:


So I needed a new notebook for my notes and lists.  I had picked up a notebook on sale at Indigo book store a while back for this purpose and just got around to altering it. Very different style than my last one. It just shows how my style and my supplies have evolved.

RECIPE:

Paper, ribbons, fibers and flowers all from
my "Use It Up" Inventory
Image ~ Sassy Studio Designs
"Denim Debbie" (A Friday freebie)
Copic markers
Spellbinders ~ Nestabilities Labels Nine
Gypsy and Winter Woodland Cricut cartridge for "Notes"

I have put my first list in this book and am looking forward to using it for a while now. 

Thanks for coming by today.  Don't forget to join us this week at Paper Playtime for our "Anything Goes" challenge.  Take care, my friends.
