Marks Paper Co. Printable

Remember this post about Marks Paper Co. hybrid download? did anyone download the printable? well, i did! and this is what i made:

I just love that they were journal spots...they are my new obsession {for lack of a better word, hahaha} and I knew one of the contest requirements was to use a flower so this is where my brain went.

I love altering clothespins. Especially these since we got a bunch of them from Brian's pap's house before he died, along with his sewing machine. So I attached a magnet to the back and now i have a clothespin to hang on my fridge and remind myself things. I can keep these inspirational quotes in the pin or I can put a to do list, or a general reminder.

I got all this from one printable 8.5"x11" paper! I couldn't believe how my journal paper punch fit so perfectly with this.

Hybrid in the house....

i am so excited. i haven't done hybrid in ages. i mean, i have journaled on some photos and used some digi stamps on my photos, too but not realy hybrid in sooo long b/c we moved the pc upstairs and haven't hooked up the printer yet. BUT now i have a reason too! Marks Paper Co. is having a contest...can't wait! And i love the idea of a calendar for my desktop so check it out. i am always running to get my cell to use the calendar on there. bleh.

So i used the scrappy formula over at CMK. i just can't get enough of the inspo over there. this layout cracks me up. look at my stud muffin! there is this killer restaurant where i went to school {juniata college} that serves homemade, organic foods and has the best imports on tap AND the theme of the pub is Boxers! yes, boxers like the dog...and we have had two boxers now and they are the best dogs ever...well...the first time we went to one of my reunions up there, we never went & brain never let me live it down! so this past October at my 10 yr we went TWICE! ha. so anywho...that's the story 'bout that.

and who cannot get enough of these journaling spots & other goodes from Jillibean Soup??!?!?!?! i just got a project picked up for ST Holiday Idea book using some of these journaling spots.

and look at this fun hempy/wirey/awesome ribbon the very cool and talented LUCY E sent me! thanks, girl!
