Simon Says .... Anything BUT a Card


What a challange! I'm so used to making cards. Well I decided to make a much needed kitchen notepad to help my poor memory.
The backboard is a piece of very thick cardboard and I have covered it in scraps of paper, fixed on a spring clip with very small bolts and nuts. I covered a 20p notepad with papers and added borders made with a Threading Waters punch. The letter is chipboard and flowers are handmade from card and buttons tied on with ribbon. I embellished the clip with ribbon to disguise the clip a bit.
Hope you like it. Comments are always welcome.
Hugs,
