Christmas in July
Call me crazy from the heat…it’s another scorcher here in the Sunshine State…but I decided to get a jump on the holidays and make an altered composition book Holiday Planner.
I’m hoping this will help me to stay organized (and on budget!) this year…as well as keep me from losing my mind! I’ve created pockets for storing recipes and receipts and such. 
I added tabs to create sections for "lists", "To Do", "Gift Ideas", etc. And of course, no planner would be complete without an adorable matching pen 
This one is attached using SU!’s Label Punch and 2 brads (the holes were punched through the chipboard using the CAD)
With all the rain lately (and the fact that I am NOT headed to SLC for Convention this week <sniff, sniff>), my creative muse must be in overdrive!
I made this Spirelli "ornament" for the cover (the punched shape is actually SU!’s Scallop Circle, using the Double Punch technique)…very festive! And as a final touch? I made paper bead bookmarks, of course Too much? Maybe…but I thoroughly enjoyed myself! Just call me the "Stepford Stamper" LOL!
