it's july!!!!
it's my blog anniversary month and i am just blown away by all your love and support for the past 2 years. believe me, i am so grateful for that! 

i have fabulous fun giveaways lined up for you all throughout the month of july. a little way of showing i am thankful for you - whether you follow me in twitter, facebook, pinterest and lately, instagram. all your encouragement and inspiration mean a great deal to me! now on to our giveaway.....

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

to kick off this month's blog birthday, we have the amazing MAY BOOKS notebook giveaway. their company's mission is to eradicate ugly notebooks out there and i am just smitten by their products. their notebooks are all eco-friendly. the certified green canvas covers are sewn (check the video - its' amazing!) to every single notebook in the old-fashioned way. and they are all pretty!

i happen to stumble upon these notebooks at my local boutique one weekend and snapped up a couple for my besties. when i got home, i looked up their site and lo and behold, i was sucked into their shop trying out all their patterns, colors, monogram choices for my own personal notebook! 

everything is fully customizable including what you want INSIDE. the possibilities are endless. you can create your ideal lovely notebook, meal/recipe planner, a baby diary, a bride's planner, agendas or even a pregnancy diary. and it is super light, you can easily toss it in your purse or diaper bag or gym bag everyday! 

here are a few design samples i played with last night for my own perfect notebook :
