G. Dwight</FONT> </FONT></P><P><FONT face=Verdana>This poem is so inspiring, I just knew it had to be used on this lo.&nbsp; Of cource when I talk about my garden, it's my own little haven, my office where I plant my ideas and grow my creations.&nbsp; I really like the symbolism of the poem.&nbsp; </FONT></P><P><FONT face=Verdana><U>Some of my favorite things:</U> (left to right starting at the top)metal; rubons; ribbon; adhesive; patterned paper; stamps</FONT></P><P><FONT face=Verdana>I don't have a single favorite color for any one item.&nbsp; I am a coniseur of color, you might say. I love it all and will try every single combination!&nbsp; The journaling is on the inside, mentioning what I like best about each of my favorite items.&nbsp; Such as how you cannot simply collect one kind of ribbon and that my favorites are gingham and polkadot.&nbsp; My fave metals are brads and corners.&nbsp; The stamps I use the most are my alpha stamps.&nbsp; Have to have one&nbsp;in every style.&nbsp; That I am nothing w/o my double stick tape and my newfound love, the Tombow Mono adhesive.&nbsp; Could you believe that I used to despise patterned paper?&nbsp; I did but no longer!&nbsp; I am a sucker for every style, color and theme.&nbsp; Rubons are such a simple yet fun embellishment!&nbsp; Mush like stamping, they have long been a fave of mine. </FONT></P><P><FONT face=Verdana><U>The design:</U>&nbsp; Again, I absolutly was inspired by these lovely papers.&nbsp; I knew with this many photos and journaling to go with, I'd need to create some flaps and I love the way they turned out!&nbsp; I printed the title on transparency except for the big "C" is a rubon.&nbsp; I tied coordinating ribbon to the new KF loopy brads, the bright colors go so well with this lo.&nbsp; I added a piece of black twill with MM staples to use as handles to flip the pages open.</FONT>&nbsp; </P></FONT>
