Of notebooks and roses...

It has been a relaxing weekend... with no deadlines to meet.

I made a notebook last night... I was so inspired to use blue after looking at this beautiful piece of work by Aida Haron...
I prefer something mild, so I mixed my blues with greys... I dabbed some acrylic paint onto the flocked paper (notebook cover) and I really love the effect. This is the result...






I am seriously enjoying the process of making notebooks... I am giving this one to a lovely friend.

There is something about these roses... I am starting to love the vintage and shabby chic feel they give me...Again! An apron from Daiso... and a tote from Cotton On... to add to my other collection...



I hope the week has been kind.
Scrap to your heart's desires!
