Me, being craftsy

I swore I wouldn't post until the twenty-eighth, but I couldn't resist. I was just having so much fun last night, until midnight, making something. (I have to give some credit to my future-and former-roommate, who told me to do something for myself or I wouldn't have even attempted this ;)

I had an old tissue box with a pretty pattern and an old cereal box (without a pretty pattern) and an old patterned paper gift bag that I loved. I just had to do something with them. This is what I came up with:

A little memo book and a journal! They were so much fun to make! I can't wait to use them. Now all I have to do is find a clasp-type-thing to close the journal with. Not sure what to use yet...(if you've got some brilliant ideas, let me know!)

ps sorry about the bad quality pics. I was in a hurry.
