Teacher Gift - Tilda Notepad

Hi again!
I'm back for my second posting today!  Our town is holding an 'Art in the Park' festival this coming Sunday and I've signed myself up to have a booth and hopefully sell my cards and demonstrate some cardmaking.  I'm really excited about it!  With this in mind I found these fabulous paper pads at the Dollar store today and decided to alter them into teacher gifts!  I loved doing this project and am thrilled at how they turned out.  This fun paper is awesome for covering the pad and I just love the colours.  Tilda was coloured with Distress Inks and I used the nesties Labels 4 for the main panel.  Here's a close up picture with the Prima flowers and MS branch punch.
The final photo is of the inside panel. I used a journalling stamp from The Stamp Barn to create an 'important numbers' list which was die cut using my nesties curved rectangles.  The flowers were made using my medium and small size retro flower punches. 

Thanks for stopping by again today - I really appreciate it!  I hope you enjoyed my notepad project - I plan on making a few more which will hopefully get sold on Sunday!
Have a great evening everyone!
Hugs,
