Bank Holiday Mondays are fab...I love that feeling of waking up and realising there's no work...yippee...I might do a bit of crafting this afternoon as I haven't been in the mood the last couple of days... but on a positive note the house is all clean and tidy...I must be ill lol!
We have a fab new challenge today over at Cupcake Craft Challenge...Denise is hosting this weeks challenge and her theme is ALTER IT! Now...I always seem to dry up when it comes to this type of challenge but not this time...I'd bought some little notepads and pens a while ago in The Range and they were just perfick for altering! I altered two pads...one for James & one for Sophie and I also added some matching design paper to the inside of the pens...they were absolutely delighted with them especially as I had personalised the notepads with their intials!
The design team have created some stunning projects for this challenge so I hope you'll wander over to Cupcake and see their inspirational projects...they have really rocked this challenge!
This is the notepad before it was altered...
