Hi Stampin' Friends!
April threw me off this week by challenging me to do something Monochromatic.
I had to do some pretty deep thinking on this one. (lol!)
An idea came to me over my morning Starbucks (love me some vanilla chai!). Of course I had nothing available to put my thoughts to paper. Then it occurred to me to combine my idea with a little notebook. One I could keep easily within reach inside my purse. So....long story short...
I now have a book to store any little inspirations that come to me.
Here is the inside front cover of my book.
Adding a pop of yellow from some sweet little chicks.
I gathered up some chip board, binding wire, and my Cinch.
Then I went to town with various shades of red, and white/ivory for my neutral color.
This little chick-a-dee by Great Impressions Stamps decorates my cover,
with a computer generated sentiment. The book is 6 x 4 with blank
white printer paper for my doodles.
Can you guess what I placed on top of my DP?
That ivory checker board is actually rubber shelf liner I picked up at the dollar store. (grin!)
I was relieved to find it was super easy to work with.

If you are up for a challenge, how about showing us your stuff in the
Great Impressions Stamps May Challenge?
Enjoy your day!
Hugs,

What a great idea! How creative to use shelf liner. I bet it won't take you long to fill your book up with all your great inspirations.
Very cute and clever too! Love the shelf liner topper!
I love the padding mat for shelves. At least that is what it looks like. Great little book though.
Ha! I looked at that and thought "that stamp looks just like shelf line...cool" You fooled me! Great notebook!
What a fun idea, Jenny! Love the 'chicken scratch' - so cute! I would need one for the nightstand, too... :)
