Cricut 360 Challenge #5

Happy Friday! Do you guys have a lot of fun plans for the weekend? I hope they include some crafty time and joining us in the new challenge over at Cricut 360 this week. :) So many people travel during the month of August, so this week is all about creating a project around that theme.

I decided to make a travel notebook. I don't know about you, but I am constantly thinking of stuff that I need to pack and if I don't write it down, I end up forgetting about it. (Sometimes I still forget haha!) Here is my travel notebook:



and here it is opened up:



The notepad came in a pack of 5 from the dollar store. The notepad measures 3.5" by 5". To make the cover, I cut out a piece of Melon mambo cardstock at 3.75" by 11" and scored it at 5 3/8" and 5 5/8". I cut out Hello Kitty out of Hello Kitty Greetings at 2.5" and popped her up with some foam adhesive. Pretty cute and it was really simple to make.

I hope you join us this week over at Cricut 360 and don't forget to head over to see what the amazing DT did to inspire you as well. Thanks for stopping by my blog today, I really appreciate it. I hope you have a great crafty day!

    Like your Hello Kitty Transportation notebook. I finished my Hello Kitty card and entered it in Transportation challenge along with M.A.G. Challenge by the page and a couple other challenges.
