Couldn't Be Happier!

I created this piece inspired by sheer joy at the news Shery from STAMPlorations is back!  I was so excited when I read the news in the blog of one of her design team members that I went straight to my STAMPlorations folder to see what I might want to create for the January STAMPlorations Challenge!  

 I settled in on a coffee card!

Trying Something New--Number 1!

As we meander a Path of Positivity, we are talking about numbers this year! Of course, you can share anything positive you like, the theme is always optional.

Remember, you may share any sort of artistic medium over at PoP:  writing, cards, journals, scrapbooking, painting, sewing, baking, needle crafts, etc as long as it is positive.  The theme is always optional.  

This month we are inspired by the number 1 or first and making a project for the first time!  In other words, try something new!

Be sure to visit Path of Positivity for a description of this!  My project is a bookmark for students at school!  This bookmark would also make for a great teacher gift!  This is a very easy and inexpensive project perfect for mass production; think students, community choir/band, friends, grandchildren, colleagues, volunteer gifts, etc.  

Check out the video below for more information!

I was inspired to make a shaped notebook!  So, I designed this in Cricut Design Space using only shapes and then figuring out all the rest on the fly!  

  Check out the video below for more information and what I have changed for future makes of this project!  If I set it all up correctly, you will also have access to this pattern if you want to give it a try!  ; )
