inspriation

i love when i get inspired, and when i do, i go full force, like with sewing, my etsy shop, and paper crafts. usually i do a craft so much i get tired of it. but i always find something new to do, which makes me feel like i really am a crafty person. i may get tired to doing the same thing over and over and over, but i always find a way back to it and regain my love for unique things. well, in my last post i talked about buying a skirt from my favorite etsy seller. i have bought from her before and she always throws in little free gifts. the first time it was a button ring which is totally cool, and i still wear it all the time. well, this time she made a little hand-made booklet. it is so super cute. so, what do i do?! i GOT incredibly inspired to make my own. so, i go out to the craft store and got a few rubber stamps and then went to the grocery store and got some brown paper bags and white printer paper to make my own little booklets! i made one and hand sewed the pages to the "cover" and did some stamping. i thought they could be list makers or grocery list booklets or random thought books, or what i'm going to use it for.. A Polaroid booklet, where i'm going to use it as a picture book. :) i thought these would be really cute to use and give each family at the wedding or to send with their invitation. i'm not even kidding it took me a total of 10 minutes, and i have tons of paper and brown paper. i didn't realize i had bought the 30 gallon paper bags.. HAHA. they were all folded and wrapped together so i couldn't tell. i like that nothing about them is perfect, the ink left a border, the words are a little off-centered, and the paper isn't cut evenly. i'm really excited!
