At the moment my PC is broke :( so I have had to use my OH's PC to upload photos etc. It's really annoying not being able to do this on my own PC, but it looks like this might be the only solution until we can get me a new PC. I do have a laptop, but I really don't like working on it!
So until then, this will have to do!
Anyways, I couldn't find my old notebook that I kept details in, on challenges, so I decided to turn a tatty old note book, that I found stuffed away somewhere, in to a brand spanking new 'Challenges' notebook. I know I do have all the challenges listed in my sidebar, but I like to have something by the side of me whist I actually craft.
You will notice that I don't have a watermark on these images, that is because that is stored in PSP on MY computer lol
Note: I really hope entering this notebook in to the listed challenges are okay, but I couldn't find anything in the rules that said it was for cards only. If not, then that is absolutely fine :)
PS. Please ignore the grubby white card on the photos, that is what I use on top of my craft mat when I am colouring in lol
The before picture. Yucky! As always, click on the images to view in full.
Front.
Back.
Inside. Not the most perfect, but it will do! As you can see I removed the old ribbon marker and made a matching spotty one.
And below a few extra photos, juct click on them to enlarge :)
