Sketch Book

Good day all,
Wednesday....YAHOO. WOW is this week flying....

Before I show you today's picture of what I worked on over the weekend....Here's an update on the Just Because Cards Series... I have a video ready for tomorrow and then I'll do three more cards by the end of next week.  I'll take a little break from the cartridge and do some other fun projects....I'd go nutty if I did the whole cartridge in a row....I wonder if there is a card for that? LOL

DVD update...The DVD is done, I just have a few tiny details to do (like make artwork for the case) and it will be available here on my site....

OK now for today's project...

Once upon a time, in a land far far away.....oh wait that's not right..... :)


I saw a video by Kristina Werner for Make A Card Monday a few months ago on how she made her own sketch book to keep her card ideas in...Here's mine....


Kristina stapled hers with a stapler that I don't have, so I used my crop-a-dile and twine to keep my pages together. Worked great.....


Have a great day...We're lookin at 90 degree weather today.......

Cute Sketch book. I would need to make mine 8 1/2 by 11 as I printout a lot of ideas I find online and keep them in a notebook.

Does that mean that throwing the paper down in front of you and then deciding what to do with it is not the preferred method? Great idea!

Now how did I miss that MACM project? What a great idea, actually I have seen her using that little book, but didn't realize she had made it.
Yours is adorable.
I'm in the Buffalo, NY area and were having 90 degree weather too. Nice, but a little overwhelming. Got the air conditioners in and running, so I'm doing great.
