ReVamping

What do you do on a Friday evening when the Hubby has gone out on a man date to watch a basketball game with a friend of his??
NORMALLY it would be GREAT to have FIVE hours to craft on a friday night with out feeling guilty that the hubby is sitting there watching that movie alone while you are off cutting and sewing and glueing 
I mean HELLO someone has to post tutorials
RIGHT? ;) 

WELL not tonight.... I am NOT in the mood to be CREATIVE or crafty!
In fact your brain feels so fried that the simplest craft turns into hours of torture!!
(are you all shaking your head in shame...WELL you should be...I know that the glue gun won this battle tonight...I hang my head in shame)
**tear tear** 

Thus leading to THIS disaster simple craft.....

You grab one of your trusty SCRAPBOOK paper packs

 And old TJ MAXX find notebook
and
that old book from HIGH SCHOOL that sits on your book shelf in stolen shame 
(I swear I dont' know how this book ended up at MY house and not returned back to school with all the others...hmmm it truly is a mystery to all)
(( or maybe even stranger that I have kept it for I don't know just about 9 years now ))

and turn them in to these : 

A revamped (now) CUTE notebook
and a 
COVERED stolen book from HS
that can now sit proudly in my boys room bookshelf




*all in all...I was proud!! This most simple craft took me ALL night....many eye rolls...and ended in me DOWNING a SKOR bar milk shake...maybe tonight will be a better craft night?*
(( one can only hope )) 

HAPPY CRAFTING ;)

  3. Love them! You are amazing!

    And I tend to get so frustrated sometimes when crafting...

    Okay, almost 99% of the time :)
