Hi Everyone...can it really be August already? It is, so it is time for a new challenge. This month we are going to creating something sweet and charming from something so simple! I took some plain old notepads and made these sweet decorated ones...perfect for a little gift or sitting on your own kitchen counter to keep up with that shopping list.
Now here are a few details...
So dig into your stash and create something special. Some great ideas are adding a little trim to a lamp, dressing up a waste can for the bathroom or even making some notepads a little more special!
Be sure to leave a comment on this post with a link to your project so we can see it (not just to a general blog or site - please link to the specific post or flickr page so we don't have to hunt for it :) and you will be entered to win a $25 gift certificate from Christy to purchase anything you want from the Scarlet Lime Shop.





















love this girl! Great job!

Here is my entry. I decided to glam up the dvd case so I can store my filled photo dvd's in it.
I used paper scraps, ink, flowers and trim.
