Have you already seen the new adorable notepads from Doodlebug Design? There are two included in the new collection, Farmers Market, one for notes and one for grocery lists. I'm totally in love and that's why I decided to do a project using one of them.
My idea was to create a cover for my notepad, adding a few pockets to insert other notes, lists, tickets and photos. To start, I cut out two big rectangles and a small rectangle, out of chipboard. I wrapped them with patterned paper and then used a piece of paper to combine all three.
I used different papers for each part and also used different papers for the inside, in order to use as many patterns and colors as possible, from this beautiful collection.
What I also LOVE in this collection, are the flower dies. With those, you can make as many flowers as you wish. I used six colors of patterned papers in the 6x6 paper pad and cut out a bunch of flowers and leaves.
On the inside of the notepad cover, I used the bottom to attach my notepad and the top to add three pockets, and then added little lists and notes that I cut out from the cut-a-part paper sheet.
I also added a little loop next to the notepad, to insert a pen. Then I decorated with my die cut flowers, using as many as possible.
On the top of the cover, I added a paper-pieced cat head and then added a lot of flowers and leaves too. I also used Sunshine alpha stickers to write a sentiment.
To finish, I added a bunch of the jewels that I love so much! :) That's it guys. I love how it turned out and am excited to use it. This would also make a perfect gift. :)
See you soon,
