Last Minute Gifts – Musical Notebooks

Today’s project is a quick one I whipped up for two of my daughter’s friends who just graduated with their Music Therapy degrees. Are you noticing a theme in my house? This note books are quick and easy to make with just a few supplies.

I really like the way they turned out and hope they will too.

How did I make them? First I chose the Designer Series Paper I wanted. You need two sheets to do these composition note books.

I measured and cut my Designer Series Paper, added my favorite adhesive, Tear & Tape and adhered. Yep – It’s just that quick and easy to do! Then I finished decorating as desired.

Supplies:

Paper: Merry Music Specialty Designer Series Paper (144623), Basic Black (121045), Real Red (102482), Bermuda Bay (13197) and Whisper White Card Stock (100730)

Accessories: Layering Ovals Framelits Dies (141706) and Large Letter Framelits Dies (141712), and Bermuda Ab Mini Chevron Ribbon (144198)

but then I’m biased since my daughter is a music teacher. LOL! I just love the look of all these products together – the black and white Merry Musical Specialty Designer Series Paper is a lot of fun to work with too. I’ve got tons on projects over the holiday break with this pack of paper!

Merry Music Post It Note Holder Tutorial

Here is a project that I’m making for my daughter and her coworkers for the holiday season. I thought it would be a useful item since they are teachers – that is if they can find the ever elusive pen on their desks. LOL!

Hmmm…. maybe I should include a pen holder too? I’m going to have to think about that. I made these in Real Red since the High School colors are Black & Red.

Want to see a video so you can whip some up too?

Team Getaway Fun with the Holiday Catalog!

As I mentioned yesterday I held my team retreat last weekend. It was 3 wonderful days of fellowship, stamping, and laughter. As usual I was a bit remiss in taking photos of us together during the event. (Note to self put a sticky note out to remind me next time. since I get side tracked easily at these events. LOL). But you are in luck because I did take photos of some of the project everyone was working on.

Our group was a bit smaller than normal but that didn’t slow us down any. Actually it was kind of nice since we were able to spread out. You know how it goes 6 feet is never enough space with all those new goodies! Here is a photo of the space set up and ready for everyone to arrive.

Deborah brought this cute little treat for everyone made with the Lemon Zest Bundle (145359/145360).

I can’t wait to make some of these up myself to surprise folks with – that is if I can find the lemon candies. (3 stores already and no luck! Sigh… maybe it is the eclipse and they’ve gone the way of moon pies!)

She also brought this cute little bag she was working on using the Painted Autumn Designer Series Paper (144613) and Spooky Cat Stamp Set (144749).

And do you see the yummy Basic Black Vintage Crochet Trim (144611)? I can’t wait to start working with it!

And Cindy made these wonderful little post it holders for everyone.

On to cards – Want to see some of the wonderful cards we made in our shoe box swap?

Anna’s uses a couple of the new products from the Holiday Catalog.

I just love the Winter Wonder Embossing Folder (144686), snowflakes are my thing any how, but this card was soooo quick and easy perfect for holiday cards!

And Deborah’s is a new twist on the ever popular Swirly Bird Stamp Set (141749).

And my card – of course it uses the Musical Season Bundle (146048/146049) and Merry Music Specialty Designer Series Paper (144623).

I love the way the french horn cuts out of the Champagne Foil Paper (144748).  You may see this one turn up at my catalog launch (watch for more information coming soon.)

And how about this final card that Cindy made using the Painted Harvest stamp set from the Holiday Catalog. Soft and lovely – I knew I’d end up wanting this bundle when I saw her working with things at the retreat!

And here is a fun note card that Anna surprised me with for my promotion using the Icing on the Cake Stamp Set (143664). I was admiring it while she was stamping but had no clue it was for me – what a surprise!

I have such wonderful stamping friends and team members!

And last but not least how about this cute little thank you card made with the Bella & Friends stamp set (141867/141870)?

So what do you think? Love the new items too in my 2017 Holiday Catalog PreOrder Goodies Video from yesterday (Click HERE to see the video) and today’s projects? It’s just a peek of what’s inside the 2017 Holiday Catalog!
