Papertrey - Customer Hop



Papertrey is running another Customer Hop today. I love these challenges because I get to use their fabulous stamps! This month is monograms.

I had bought a couple of wired notebooks and have been wanting to cover one for my use, rather then a gift, which is what I usually do with them. I like this one because I can completely flip it open.  For the hexagon background, I used Rosie Posie, and the flower is from Harvest Berries [and die].  I can't wait to start using this book.  I plan on adding color combos and sketches for reference.

Okay, I am off to check out the other entries -- there will be a ton I am sure!

Thanks for stopping by~
