Cherished Teddy


I must say that this has to be one of my most favorite Sara Kay images- My Sweet Lili. It reminds me of younger days and my favorite teddy bear. I just love her. This little notebook is one I got from the dollar bin at Michael's a long time ago and i thought it was time to get to using it. I covered the book with SU Pink Piroquette which I ran through the embosser (swiss dots and birds and swirls). The paper is Basic Gray Porcelain that I got from 7kidscollegefund. I didn't order this paper at first because it is so light but it truly is beautiful and especially for those vintage kind of projects. So I am thrilled that I had Tab send it to me. I finished off the embellishements with some grosgrain (SU) and then a little clip.

The tabs on the inside I made using the lace punch from SU and I made it so that there were 6 scallops, then folded it in half and attached as a tab. I had a friend (thank you cindy!) that sent me a beautiful box that she had these little dividers in and I loved the idea. Whomever I give this to can add their own tab words then.

That is it for today ladies! Don't forget your new Magnolia stamps!
