Here is today's Blog Hop Line Up!
May Guest Designer- Emily
Nikki - You Are Here!

My project today is a notepad and pen holder that was inspired by a Michael's dollar bin find.  It is very easy to do-- just a couple of score lines and two slits and it has a built-in pen holder. 
I couldn't resist creating a small scene with the dragonfly when I saw it in this Whispering Wings set! 
All of my supplies are available at Mark's Finest Papers.


Thank you so much for visiting and I hope to see you here again tomorrow! Have a great day :)
