Heather's March Sugar kit reveal

I'm so excited to share my projects with you!

I used the Sugar kit to create three layouts and an altered bulletin board. (AND, I still have paper left to work with!)

Challenge # 7 ~ Notebook

It is time for my next reveal and a challenge!!!

You have made a cute Post it Note Holder now I would like for you to make a Notebook. These papers are so pretty and elegant that I just had to make an altered journal. I bought a Composition Book for $1.99 and I grabbed my Crate Sugar Kit.

I cut the main paper to cover the front of the journal and adhered it. I then picked out one of the wonderful, glitter borders and adhered it along the left side to cover the "seam" to make it look prettier. I used my Chestnut Roan ink and inked the Maya Road letters and spelled out the word "Notes". Next I picked some of the cool Glitter Die Cuts and adhered them on the cover. I wanted the one flower to hang off the side a little. I love to do this!

Challenge:

I would like you to make a Notebook and email it to me at thynner5@yahoo.ca to receive another ballot for the Maya Mists Duo Pack. Yummy prize indeed!! Please put "Scrapdango Blog Challenge" in the subject line.

Due Date: January 31st

Draw Date: February 1st

**Check back tomorrow for another challenge and another kit reveal!!

Post It Note Holder Tutorial

DD and I made these adorable Post it Note Holders for her teacher, Ms Debreower who is leaving next week. She wanted us to make something special that she can take with her when she starts her new, permanent teaching position in Goderich. I pulled out the beautiful Crate papers and die buts from the Sugar kit and this is what we did:

Supplies:

scissors

2 patterned papers

coaster or chipboard cut to 4x4

binder clip

Post it Notes

ribbon

die cuts/embellishments (optional)

rub-ons (optional)

adhesives

ink

sanding block

1. Cut your patterned paper to 4x4 .

2. Adhere to your chipboard.

3. Trim around the corners.

4. Sand the edges. Make sure when you sand the edges that you sand downwards. If you were to sand upwards you would rip or tear your paper.

5. Ink if desired.

6. Add die cut border and embellishments.

7. Cut a piece of coordinating paper for your binder clip. Adhere to binder clip. I added a rub on flower.

8. Add ribbon to your binder clip.

9. Clip your Post it Note to your chipboard coaster. Voila!!

Here is the other one we made. They are so quick and simple to make. **You can add a magnet to the back of them so they can stick on the fridge**

Challenge #6:

Your new challenge is to make one of these for yourself or to give as a gift. Please email it to thynner5@yahoo.ca and put Scrapdango Blog Challenge in the subject line. You will earn a ballot for the monthly draw!
