One morning I got up and on the computer, and I found that my husband had filled the computer screen with {e}post-it notes. He had typed out several things he loves about me, and he even let my boys each do one. I.LOVED.IT! It made my whole day. This was a few months ago, and they are still on my computer. I just can’t bring myself to delete them. Even though I have a readable picture of it.
I knew I wanted to write down how it made me feel when I found these post-it notes on the computer, so I made a simple scrapbook page with that one picture.
I used this fun line of American Crafts paper. I cut some of the circles out to make embellishments. The bright colors are SO fun!
And to add a little dimension to the page, I used Thickers! I LOVE Thickers! 🙂
Overall, I’m really happy with how it turned out. Sometimes when I’m working on a page, I feel like they are so flat. But aren’t scrapbook pages supposed to be flat, so they will fit in an album? But really, it has gotten HARD for me to not add dimension! It seems I add it on every page, in one way or another. Does anyone else have this dilemma?
Thanks for stopping by and reading The Happy Scraps!
How sweet!! Love your scrapbook page about it, so cute!
Your page makes me want to automatically jump into my paper stash and go to town! Thanks for the inspiration!

I love the paper you used. I often times take paper and cut out the shapes from it as well. The circles worked really well for that. And what a nice surprise from your hubby with the post-its!
aww that’s so sweet
What a simple, but oh so sweet way to let you know how appreciated you are!
