Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving! I have a lot to be thankful for...my husband and kids, a job, being able to get out of bed every morning...life is good!
So, I'm on a 4 day weekend (yay!) and I couldn't wait to finish work yesterday so that I could come home and make stuff - I'm not a big fan of Black Friday shopping (spending my Friday with a bunch of crazed shoppers is NOT my idea of  a good time), so, instead, I will find peace and serenity in my craft room (aka the garage) and make things.

I found these notebooks in a dollar bin at the local craft store - 5 pads for a $1...score! And, being the hoarder that I am, I bought whatever they had left - 16 packs, I think.

So, I took the stack apart and came up with these little goodies...**if you're sidetracked by the view of my phone in text mode, it's just my brother and I talking about family dinner tonight :)

The one on the left is a magnet calendar and notepad using lavender card stock and washi paper; the stamped image is from Sister Designs...love that line. The project on the right is a little clipboard I made with a binder clip and paper from Bo Bunny's Serenity line. The base for both is chipboard.

This is a 5x7 acrylic frame pad holder; the Hello Kitty was cut out using my Cricut.

And two altered notepads
The Hello Kitty paper is from Sandy Lion and the other is from My Little Shoebox.

I apologize for the state of my pics...I used my IPad...and I'm still trying to get used to uploading images and stuff.

Well, dinner hour has been pushed up so I now have to shove the ham in the oven earlier than planned...and, the craft store is open today, too, so, we're gonna have to head over there for some supplies. Enjoy your Thanksgiving!!!

Enjoying an awesome sunny day in Hawai'i Nei...
