365 Reasons

So, it's been awhile since I have blogged...what can I say:

a. I'm just a bad blogger
b. I've been very busy
c. I just plain ol' procrastinate too much
d. all of the above

Take your pick or just go with d! I've been busy working on an album for a client that I really had hoped to have done by Christmas, and yeah, that's probably not gonna happen, but there's still time. Then the stomach flu hit the whole family, with the exception of Matthew - lucky him - and that put me behind on Christmas shopping, so I've been trying to get that done in my spare time. But I did get some time to get into my scrappy room last night and this is what I made:

supplies - cardstock - CTMH Whisper and White Daisy, ink - CTMH Whisper, Cotton Candy, Pear, Lagoon, Honey, stamps - CTMH S1211 -  Capture the Date, A1117 - A Typeface, W189 - Friendship Alphabet Small, butterfly stamp - MME - Miss Caroline -  Dolled Up Favorites, notebook - from Michael's dollar bin
 
I had seen the idea for this here and fell in love with it and I knew I wanted to make some of  these for Christmas presents. (Nothing like waiting until the last minute!)  My sister likes to keep a daily journal, so I thought this would be perfect for her. I liked it so much I think I'll even make me one.  It really didn't take long at all and I love the way it turned out. I'm planning on making something similar to this for my nieces and they can use it for whatever they want.
 
Hopefully I will be back soon with some more goodies to share!
