PKS Spring Fling Blog Hop!

Hello everyone and welcome to the
Peachy Keen Stamps Spring Fling Blog Hop!

I'm so glad that you joined us for this fun hop!  If you arrived here from my friend Emily's blog, Creations of an Army Wife, you are in the right place!  If you just stopped by for a visit and would like to start the hop at the beginning, you need to pop on over to the Peachy Keen Stamps Blog.  I encourage you to start at the beginning so that you won't miss even one of the amazing projects brought to you by the fabulous PK Design Team, both past and present!  While you are hopping, be sure to leave a comment on each blog because the Queen of Peachy Keen has an amazing prize package up for grabs and the more you comment, the better your chances!!!

Ok, so let's get started, shall we?  Today's hop is all about Spring, and each spring I feel the need to fix up, repair, remodel, re-do...you get my point?  As much as my poor hubby dreads it, each spring brings several "Honey-do" lists!  So, to help my hubby keep all those "Honey-do" lists together, I thought I would make a sweet little notebook to keep them in......

(click on photo to enlarge)

Recipe:
*I started with two 6 X 7.5 inch pieces of chipboard.  I inked up the edges and covered them (each side) with some pretty October Afternoon paper.
* The tree and grass are both from the Silhouette Online Store.
* That fabulous bee hive and pretty little flowers are from April Peachy Keen Stamps Stamp of the Month (PKSC-16).


* The sweet little bees are from the "baby bee" stamp which was a freebie a couple of weeks ago. There is a larger version of this little guy included in the April Stamp of the Month.
* The butterfly is from last month's stamp set PKSC-15
* I used my Cinch to punch holes in my covers and inside papers then used black wire to bind everything together.
* Next, I used my Copic markers to color some white seam binding in shades to match my cover.  I snipped them into short pieces and tied them to the wires making this "Honey-do" notebook to bright and colorful for my hubby to miss!
I wanted the inside to be pretty too, so I stamped that cute little bee on each page....
Cute, huh?

Before I let you head off to the next blog, I want to pass on the info about the wonderful Peachy Keen Stamp of the Month Club.  If you aren't familiar with this program, and you LOVE Peachy Keen Stamps (I mean, really, who doesn't?), you really need to check this out!  You will receive a wonderful discount on the stamps and get to see the stamps before non-club members - just click here for all the info!

Ok, now you are off to the very talented Cristina at Crafting With Cristina!  Thanks again for stopping by - don't forget to leave some bloggy love for everyone!

Until next time,
