As we are coming closer to Thanksgiving and of course this being November the month of giving thanks, reflecting and anticipating. 

I decided to upcycle a note pad that I found at the Dollar Store!

Inside is a tablet of note pages so it will be perfect to date and share a thought, a thanksgiving, praise, or maybe something else. 

Here is the cute little note pad I picked up for a dollar … 

BUT...

I am going to turn it into something super fabulous using Xyron Products and Jillibean You Make MISO Happy Collection! 

Cut a piece You Make MISO Happy pattern paper; run through the Xyron Creative Station with Permanent Adhesive. 

Add to front of note pad. 

Cut scallop border pattern paper; run through the Xyron 3" Disposable Sticker Maker. 

Repeat by adding the "There are so many reasons to be Happy" Sticker to pattern paper. 

Run doily die cut and circle punch through the Xyron Creative Station with Permanent Adhesive. 

Add to front of note pad. 

Add paper embellishment to front of doily using the Xyron Taper Runner.

Deco punch the "Think Happy Be Happy" Epherema Card; mat to two pieces of pattern paper using Xyron Taper Runner. 

Wrap twine around Epherema Card. 

Add to top of note pad with pop dots. 

Fussy cut flowers from pattern paper.
