Hello and welcome!
I'm back with my second and last Guest Designer project for January. It has been fun to join Mona Pendleton and her talented CR84FN design team this month. If you've never played along with this challenge I encourage you to as they welcome all skill levels and styles.
I made a mini book (see my previous post) that inspired me to create this mini as a gift. It's full of stamped quotes that I personally like and hope the recipient will too. The main challenge colors are aqua, tan, and light yellow with neutrals being the exception. I stayed true to the challenge requirements on the front cover and for several of the pages but did incorporate a few dp's from the MME Follow Your Heart-Be Amazing collection that featured additional colors.
Side View
All of the quotes are Verve stamps with the exception of two. The Albert Einstein quote is from the Words of Wisdom set by Waltzingmouse Stamps and the Jean De La Bruyere quote is part of the Faith & Hope set by Taylored Expressions. I will include the stamps I used by Verve in my supply list at the end of this post. A Cinch binding machine was used to punch through the chipboard and to bind the book together.
Thanks for taking a look and I hope you will drop by the CR84FN Color Challenge and leave some love for the talented designers who work hard to inspire all of us.
Hugs and Happy Crafting,
Lisa xx

Lisa this is just fantastic! What a stunning book, so many little details, and lovely papers and encouraging quotes. A beautiful gift!
Wow! Absolutely beautiful!!!
Lisa - this is truly inspirational! I love it all - the quotes are just lovely; I particularly like the Horowitz one. I'm sure this will be a much treasured gift. So glad you joined us as our Guest Designer. x
ohmy!! this is sooo, sooo pretty. LOVE how you used the colors and all the gorgeous quotes and embellies. Nice work with the GDT spot.
You've done a great job with this little mini book - it's a little piece of art! There are so many words of wisdom in there, too. I especially like the pages with the bird, the feather and the bicycle - they're so nicely combined with matching elements and sentiments.
Just lovely, Lisa.... delicious colours and papers, and the whole thing is put together so beautifully! (First photo doesn't seem to be working, sadly, or maybe it's just me?)
