Notepads

Remember how we used to do these notepad toppers with the Top Note Die? Well now you can use the Labels Collections Framelits dies to do the same thing. This project was one of the things we did in my Big Shot Class this month. Once I started making these, I couldn't stop......

This would be great for a "man" gift, and uses the Well Worn dsp. I used the largest Label for the topper on the 5" x 7" notepads from Staples, added a clip covered with more dsp, then added the monogram using Lovely Letters. The wood button is new and you can get it on June 1st.

This one uses the Twitterpated dsp that will be in the new catalog (and is in the current catalog as well). I used Posy Punch, hostess set for the flowers, added a small punched flower from the Itty Bitty Shapes pack and a pearl. Baja Breeze Seam Binding & Pleated Ribbon finishes it off.

For this one I used all new stuff!
Oval Accent Bigz Clear die in Whisper White, stamped it with Forever with You, in Gumball Green (new In Color) added some more flowers from the punch pack, The sentiment is from the same stamp set, and die cut with the Apothecary Accents Framelits (4 different shapes, love this!) and stamped in Primrose Petals (another new In Color). Topped it off with some Gumball Green 3/8" Stitched Satin Ribbon. 

These notepads are 5" x 3 1/2", found them in the $1 bin at Staples and uses the Beau Chateau dsp and the 1 1/4" Stripped Grosgrain Ribbon. What are we going to do without this ribbon? Its one thing I'm going to miss a lot!
So these notepads are fun to make and don't take a lot of supplies to decorate. These notepads will be gifts for my granddaughters teachers.
