Create this fun little book!

**Note: This is a post from last January. I still have my Little book and love it! It's not filled out yet...but getting there. I wanted to re-post this for anyone who may not have seen it. I encourage you to create your very own book of possibilities for 2011. Enjoy:)



Here it is...MY VERY OWN "Little Book of Possibilities"!!



John Ruskin says...

"Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream, so shall you become. Your vision is the promise of what you shall at last unveil."

That's what I think about this book I created...it's a place to dream my dreams, set my "lofty" goals and grow and create myself in 2010. The possibilities are so very exciting to me!!

Here's an example of the inside of the book. You can see on the right I've already started listing and dreaming and hoping.



Here's a look at 2 of my favorite pages in the book...I adore butterflies and they are scattered throughout.



Another page...



The book has approx. 144 pages in it along with 12 calendar pages and 12 plastic "sleeves" for photos, notes, whatever. I put decorated cardstock in the sleeves. I will use for photos, lists, handwritten notes I receive, etc.

Here's the back of the book...




When all is said and done this project took about 5 hours total. I used rub-ons, scraps of paper, stickers and stamps. It was a REALLY FUN project!!!

Thanks for looking and let me know if you make one.

  2. Hey, thanks for stopping by gracenotes. I'm returning the visit. I *love* this little book, and can envision making some for girlfriends' birthdays this year. A fun place to stick the little stuff of life. Thanks for the great idea!

    Do you remember the brand of the book that included such a great variety of pages?
