Wow who knew blogging would be such a rewarding experience!! All the comments left on my first post made me feel warm and loved all over. Im turning mushy here…thank you everyone for taking the time to come and visit!
This is a planner I made to help organize myself over the holidays. It's actually a manila file folder that I altered using this tutorial from SCS. I loved how this turned out!! It was kinda hard to use the last of my Basic Grey pp but it was worth it! It's hard to tell from the picture but I stamped Fancy Flourishes along the top and a strip of Damask Design I embossed with clear powder in the middle. (I think you can click on the picture to enlarge it.)

I stamped and embossed the dove image from PTI's 2008 Holiday Tag Set. Isn't that stamp adorable and it doesn't need to be used for just tags.
Thanks for looking!
