Each year our SINKS group gets together for a gift exchange. I really love these get togethers because I always love to see what my fellow demonstrators create for their gifts along with the fellowship is just a lot of fun.
So, today I thought I would share with you the item that I made as my gift. It uses the Spice Cake Designer Series Paper, which is just my absolute favorite in our Holiday Mini Catalog. If you love it as much as I do, don’t forget it is only available until January 3rd – so get yours now before it is too late!

I made this coordinating note book, pen, and bookmark set. I like the way the elasticized bookmark will hold your spot in the note book. It seems I’m always making notes to keep myself on task and I know my daughter can’t resist a note book either. So I thought it would make a wonderful gift for anyone of any age.
Here are some of the other gifts from our exchange. I thought everyone did a great job with their items.
