Got My Groove Back!

After a complete lack of crafting, I finally finished a project tonight! One that I've been thinking of doing since...before we left GA. I know. It's been a while!

Do you remember way back when I bought all that paper at Hobby Lobby? Stock piling because there are ZERO craft stores in good 'ole Hawaii... Well, I finally did something with it! I've been wanting to make this handy dandy notebook! thing to keep around the house:

I mean, let's face it. When your hubby is in the military, there's a lot of paperwork to deal with. POAs, Orders, housing stuff, finance stuff, PCS stuff, TriCare/medical stuff....and the list continues. Wouldn't it be great if you had one place to put all of that stuff? So, if something came up you knew exactly where to go?

Well, I now have that!! Thanks to my bestie for making me my household notebook and getting me used to having a notebook for everything. =) The one she made me actually has an Army section, but we kinda outgrew that. Haha!

Basically, I just cut the paper to fit the cover of the binder. Then, I typed out some cute phrases, the name of the binder, the Soldier's Creed, the Army Wife's prayer, and what labels I wanted on each section. Pretty simple. Then, I used some good 'ole scrapbooking tape and made it all cute and stuff. Wanna see? Of course you do. =)

 The side of the binder. {Duh. =P}

Now for the sections...

Back of the binder with The Soldier's Creed.

So, what do you think? Cute? Boring? Do I need to add more sections? I feel like I'm forgetting something. 

But, I'm seriously proud of myself that I finished a project. =) Not to mention one that I can actually use!! =D

Now, what's next on my list? Oh right, the wreath... Yeah, that one might take a while. I'll let you know when it's finished.
