Altered Composition Notebook

Hello Friends,
I have a lot of posts today, so make sure to check back here often. Don't forget about my "MEGA MONDAY BIRTHDAY GIVEAWAY" [click here for more info]. By now all children should be somewhat adjusted with being back in school. The routines around the house are getting back on track and everyone is settling into a new normal. I created this project of an Altered Composition Book for my step-daughter who's in high school. I wanted to surprise her with and she Loved It! Now, she's putting in requests for others that she wants done. Of course I would be happy to do more for her. This Composition Book is being entered into My Pink Stamper's Blog Hop Challenge - "School Theme Project" (cannot be a card or layout). Also this was a perfect fit for Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog (FCCB) - "Back to School" (use ABCs and/or 123s on your project).

Design Team MAG Challenge #43 - Forever Young pg.43

Hi My Wonderful Fellow Friends,
It's MAG Challenge Friday and this week we are challenged to use the "Forever Young" cartridge; page 43 only. I Love, Love, Love this cartridge. I recommend it as a must have with your cricut collection. It fits soooo many occasions for women, little girls, parties, holidays,...etc. Make sure to head on over to MAG Challenge by the Page and see what the rest of the Design Team has created. We all Love Comments so be sure to leave us some Love.
After viewing all the inspirational projects; Why not JOIN IN ON THE FUN! We want YOU to PARTICIPATE. These challenges wouldn't be any fun without Y-O-U! Can't wait to see what you create. Remember:

For MAG Challenge you cannot use any other Cricut cartridge, page or cut from another cartridge (even if it is in your stash), only cuts from the specified page.  However, you are free to use all the embellishments and treasures from your stash!!!!

Here is my project I came up with. I'm so proud of this. I absolutely adore how it came out. It's like this design just poured itself into creation. I used my favorite DCWV stack too.

I better get some more before I run out. I don't even want to think of that happening. I hope you enjoy. Again we want to see you in on this MAG Challenge too. Smooches...
