Pimp my Pen Tablet

Everytime I go somewhere with my computer I carry my pen tablet with me and I was starting to worry that it would get damaged. So I wanted a little slip case for it. Since I have the Amy Butler scrapbooking bag to carry around the computer I wanted to make the little cover out of matching fabric. So I chose one of the dot fabrics from Bleeker Street.

With some coaching from JennyP, I ended up making it like an envelope. The tablet slips in the pouch and the flap folds over. I put felt on the front and the little flap has velcro.

I also put velcro on the back of the tablet and the little pen holder so they stick to the felt. On the inside of the pouch is a piece of bookboard, so it becomes a lap pad when I'm using it on the couch. I'm really proud of the little handle. It looks really cute!

While I was teaching Digi Scrapping today at the store my kids had homework. Their job was to make me a picture representing "spring" without using any writing instruments. This is the beginning of their project. Of course Haven would do a diorama! The danglies are birds, just in case you didn't figure it out. They need more supplies to finish it. They make me so proud!
