Hello Fellow Crafters and Friends,
I wanted to share sweet little project I made for an exhange. I liked it so much, it was pretty tough sending it out. I used the Cuttlebug with a Sizzix die and thought it just turned out sweet.
I had purchased this awesome fabric for a seat cover in our car, where Pumpkin always places her feet, and found out it is actually CHALKBOARD FABRIC.... cool huh??!! The flowers are made of a Mary Englebright fabric that I had purchased YEARS ago when I was thinking about quilting... as you can see that didn't happen. The flowers were so much fun to make and so easy peasy!!
So I hot glued the Chalkboard fabric to the front of the notebook along with the flowers. I used ATG tape for the ribbon, it seemed to be easier for me to make the ruffle effect that way.
Well I hope you enjoyed. It really was fun to make and I think I will be doing more as gifts for spring.
Happy Crafting.
