I am SO thrilled. When I walked to my mailbox like any ordinary morning with three dogs in tow, I was breathing deeply and enjoying the warm sunshine and quiet breeze coming over the trees.

I grabbed the Pekingese, Buttercup (she came to us with this name it is not one I would have necessarily chosen for her). The mail lady handed me our stack of usual bills, periodicals and tucked into the middle of this bundle was a three page note from Ms. Vivian. She had written the note on some of the paper I had stamped inside a previous notebook that I had given to her.

I was thinking of her today, as you can see I was creating yet another beautiful notebook for her. For this project I used the generic mini legal pads purchased from the local office supply store. I measured the pad, trust me they are not 5 X 7″ they are usually a bit bigger or smaller.

I cut my paper and printed the musical score onto transparency film, following the manufacturer’s instructions. I cut ghost shapes using sizix flower #5 and plastic I recycled from my recycling bin. The project took a total of three hours to complete, it is not difficult. Just waiting around for paint to dry mostly.

Have a super weekend, I am sure we will be working in the yard, putting our new grill together and cooking out. Craig will be coming home this weekend and I am very happy to have him for a couple of days.

Take care, be safe and stamp Happy!
