Getting organised for Christmas

on
Before.....
I was doing a bit of blog surfing last night and found some lovely ideas on this site-  Mish Mash.

Anyway it gave me a bit of inspiration to take a very cheap note pad (4 for £1),  design a pretty cover for it and use to to keep track of things to do for Christmas such as  who I've already bought presents for etc.

.....after!
It's really simple but nicer to leave out on a work surface than the plain old notebook! (Now all I need to do is the shopping and wrapping!)


I also though that it would work well for the Festive Cheer challenge from The Crafty Pad. The challenge suggested using traditional colours such a red and green plus, in this case,  a splash of gold glitter.Aslo the JUGs, red, green and white challenge
