'Anything but a Card' Challenge

Hi there :)

The new challenge over at Make the Day Special Stamp Store this month is 'Anything but a Card' so I have decided to use the off cuts from a ruled refill pad I chopped up for another project to make a couple of jotter/shopping list pads....

There's been quite a bit of recycling going on with these two pads including the scraps of card I used for the front covers and even the magnetic piece on the back of the long jotter!! I have simply cut the long slim paper off-cut into two blocks and then stapled them together along with a cardboard back ( recycled from the A4 refill pad too).

I've used MFT's Fall Florals with pigment ink for the long pad and one of the Three Amigo's for the smaller although I've added a tail to this little cat from the raccoon so I could turn him into a tabby type :)

It was great fun making these and using up scraps along the way.... and nice to make something other than a card for a change :) I can't wait to see what fun ideas are entered into the gallery... it's always good to find new ways to use your stamps and dies so I hope you can join us too :)
