My Kind of Day!

After a wet, cold winter today we had clear skies and sunshine, then my adorable 7 month old grandson came to visit and tonight I did some scrapbooking. The only way to make it better would be to throw in some shopping. Seeing my grandson always makes me smile. I just saw him 2 weeks ago but they grow so much at that age. Today he was using my wheelchair to grab onto and pull himself up - well almost. It won't be long until he's scooting all over the place. He's so strong and very determined - both good traits but not so much at this age! He's such a treat and to think that the fun is just beginning!
I also finished another altered note book I had started earlier in the week. I wanted it to be a distressed vintage look. I used papers from Bo Bunny and Echo Park tearing and distressing them then having a newsprint paper peek out as if the next page. Prima flowers were  added as well as a clock cut from their packaging, a silver chain, Tim Holtz gears, bling, ribbon, a tag and everything inked to give it a vintage look.



I LOVE making these altered note books. They can be used for anything and are so much fun to make.
This one is available in my Etsy shop. Have a peek while I'm off to pick papers for the next one!
Have a great weekend!
