I chose to use the Grace Paper Packet because it's so warm and masculine!

My first project is a mini-birthday card measuring 3.5" x 2.5" and the pattern comes from CTMH's Wishes Card Confidence Program (Simple Strip on pg. 37).  I made it with my oldest son in mind who will have a birthday Jan. 1st!!!  The only thing that will fit inside is folded $$$ or you could put a gift card inside (loose as there will be no room for a pocket and such).  I embossed the binder clip using Clear Detail Embossing Powder over the honey ink.  I used Cocoa Grosgrain Ribbon and our corner rounder for the scalloped pocket.  I used a sponge and Cocoa Ink to distress all the paper edges.

My second project is a to-do list which measures approximately 8.25" x 2.75".  These have been done on numerous blogs over the past few months and I've made several for Christmas Wish Lists, Honey-Do Lists, etc.  I changed this one up a bit to make it a little smaller so you could get 2 from a 12" x 12" piece of cardstock.

I randomed stamped the front using Honey, Barn Red, Twilight, & Cocoa Ink.    I used a sponge and Cocoa to distress all the paper edges.  I also broke out my Building Block Alphabet to do my initials on the front.  I used our corner rounder to make the scalloped edge at the top of the note pad.  The ribbon is from a LSS (LOVE the wider ribbon) and the button is a Clear Craft Button (soooooooo VERSATILE!!!) backed with some of the B&T and tied with Colonial White Waxy Flax.
