little gi: hello monday :)

hello monday :)

we are still on a huge high from last night's big game. GO JETS!!!!!!!

whew!!! what a nail biter! i think i watched most of the game holding my breath & then jumping around & screaming like a maniac. ahhh......so fun :)

now in non-football news kenner road revealed new kits at the end of last week. these kits are so gorgeous, i especially loved the vintage price tag cards in the add on red velvet.

i love the gingham patterned paper too. gingham is my weakness...i love ginghams

and some simple ones b/c i just had to use that music paper and seam binding. just had to...

and then a bookmark because for some reason i don't have one...wha??? w/ all the paper i've got lying around i don't have a bookmark??? and i had to use another one of those mini keys. they are just so cool...

and my favorite project this month is this little "daily" book. since seeing emily falconbridge's thankful journal a few years ago, i've always wanted to do something similar. a little place (pretty, of course:) where i could just pop in something i was thankful for each day. this little guy now sits on my bedside table & i am really enjoying reflecting each night about something that i'm grateful for. with the destruction & loss & incredible hardships happening in haiti, this exercise has become even more meaningful.

the inside is just ledger papers i had in my stash cut to size & then glued back to back. they are blank except for those sass stickers (i used that entire sassafrass sticker sheet on the inside pages. just cut & stuck them randomly throughout the interior. i was kinda proud of myself because that is something i never do! use up something...i tend to be stingy w/ cute things like that & they hang around forever.) each week i just pop on the date up top & then jot down something for each day. easy peasy & so rewarding.

so happy monday!!! & GO JETS!!!!
