Created by Lisa at the Poppy Paperie blog, this purse-sized project is easy to make with her photo tutorial. Based on an inexpensive mini-composition book, this project features vivid colors and sprightly design, right down to the secure closure and pen loop. Receipt envelopes and divider tabs complete the makeover, turning this tiny notebook into a Christmas organizer!

Nice job!
