B is for Board Book!

So sorry I've been bloggy negligent.  Super super busy.  I hope to stop by and visit you soon!!!  Well I wasn't sure that I was going to be able to do the mid month A to Z challenge for Scrapbookers Anonymous let alone play along with the first challenge over at LESSology, which I was so excited to see.  But the letter to use at Scrapbookers Anonymous is B and the challenge over at LESSology is to upcycle a book or make a book out of something that is upcycled.  Many of the DT members at LESSology upcycled old board books so merging the 2 challenges seemed meant to be!  So for my letter B challenge at Scrapbookers Anonymous I too decided to upcycle an old Board Book.

To stick with the letter B, the only paper I've used on this is by manufacturers that start with B.  The lines include Basic Grey (Out of Print), Bella Blvd (One Fall Day and I don't recall the line the yellow cloud paper is from, help Theresa), Bo Bunny (Petal Pushers) and the new double dot journaling line by Bo Bunny.  Actually I believe the only thing on here that doesn't start with the letter B are the alphas.  Here's the cover of the book:

The hearts are a Bazzil border, and the flower is a Basic Grey Bloomer.  My intent with this book is to use it to write down the funny things my kids say.  I started writing these things down in my Smash book but I filled up a page in no time so I decided the kids sayings deserve a book of their own.  Due to the purpose of the book I've kept the insides pretty plain with lots of room to write.  Here are a couple of pages of the inside:

And here is the back:

I absolutely love this and I already have something to write down in it!  Head on over to Scrapbookers Anonymous and check out what the rest of the DT did with the B challenge.  Now I have to go over to LESSology and link this up so you should go over there as well!
