Great Expectations

I am so happy to soon be a Grandma !! For my daughter to record her pregnancy I decorated a little pretty notebook and added some pockets and extra bit to some of the pages. Then I made a little folder to gift it to her and used the same designer series paper to make a matching coaster so when she is journalling she can have her drink nearby.

 The pages of this little notebook from Stampin' Up already have some lines, sayings and images printed onto the pages but some of the sayings were a bit repetitive so I covered them in the co-ordinating designer series paper. I also added some extra pull out pages with the DSP for her to add photographs or more journalling and a list of ideas of what to journal.

 I used some of the pages to add extra decoration and pockets.

The notebook is quite small it measures 10.8cm x 14cm. There are 24 pages. You may have missed it in the catalogue - it is on page 73 and again on page 170.

It co-ordinates with the pressed petals designer series paper which I have used on this project.

Enjoy your crafting and gift making - now is a great time for personalised presents if you have some time because all of the shops are closed. My stampin up shop is still open and UPS are still delivering and this Tuesday is the very last day of Sale-a-bration so if you want to buy products to make this now is the time. Follow the button that says shop to the top or side of this page.
