A Holiday Planner — in Progress!
Hi fellow crafty people!
**
I have seen many versions of a Holiday planner done. Many of the searches I have done through google have given me instructions for every thing from altering a composition notebook to using a file folder to make a portfolio.
**
With all these ideas in hand, I decided to go off the beaten path a bit. I chose to use the cardboard that comes in a paper pack and cut it down to 6″ X 6″. The inner pages are ordinary lunch sacks I purchased from the grocery store.
**
I covered the chipboard with decorative paper and distressed the edges slightly using ink sponged around the sides. Each page has different coordinating decorative paper. The images I have used so far are from Sugar Nellie stamps and Stampendous. Click on the names to go to the manufactures web sights. I think you will agree after visiting their web sights they both have fantastic images to purchase.

Officially, I’m excited. Have you seen what Sizzix has been up too? They have new dies called “Scoreboards”. Oh my! There is a new checkbook cover, gable box and many more. Click their name to view the new stuff. I have placed an order with an online company that has them for reasonable prices. I purchased my dies from two sources, EBay and Memory Making crafts. Click on their name for the link.
I hope you guys enjoyed a joyful Thanksgiving and are having a wonderful weekend. Stamp Happy!

A note to Susan, you can purchase BIA binding from Queens Ink at Savage Mills. Her web sight is: http://www.queensink.com. Most of the BIA bindings I use where gifts for working a scrap and stamp show about a year ago. It is great to get paid in product! Please email me, we have a great group of local girls who stamp and have lunch and other fun stuff, and I’m always up for new friends and a play date! Email for you and everyone is: Ms.Rhetta@verizon.net. Hugs and have a great Sunday.
