Hi, guys! I'm so sorry I'm a day late with this post, it's been a very busy few days. Our new Challenge at Dream Valley is Anything But A Card and our sponsor is the lovely All Dressed Up Stamps. Wendy kindly sent us some images to use, and when I saw this cute little girl reading I knew I had to make a pretty notebook! I removed the covers from a shop-bought notebook and covered them with paper, then used my Crop-A-Dile to re-punch the holes and thread the covers back onto the wire binding. I added some gorgeous pink ribbon and cut the letters with a Memory Box Classic Alphabet die set. My teamies have been very inventive, go and check out their creations! Thanks for looking! love Mags B x

We have two awesome sponsors: Robyn's Fetish and The Stamping Boutique I altered a cheap notebook: I removed the front and back covers and covered them with paper from my stash, then used a Crop-a-dile to punch holes so that I could thread the covers back on. Here is the inside: The image on the front is Guitar by The Stamping Boutique - isn't it gorgeous? I love the 'hippie' vibe! I coloured it with Promarkers and added clear Wink of Stella on the flowers and Glossy Accents on the hearts. Then I added a K&Co 'Citronella' £D paper flower sticker. Covering the booklet was a bit fiddly - especially putting the covers back, it's important that they face in the right direction! -but I'm rather pleased with it! Now take a look at what my inventive tea...
