Flip Notes, You're Gonna Want One!




Welcome Spring Flingers! The secret to Success is support!

Have you ever see a product and thought, "Gee, why didn't I think of that?" Well, that was my first thought when I opened my Flip Note and saw how durable and well constructed this product is. It's a notepad and pen in a gorgeous, metal case that fits in any purse or bag. I will be forever thankful to FlipNoteFan for sending me a Flip Note to try, as well as two to giveaway.

Flip Notes are Wellspring's best seller and are available in over 30 chic designs. There's one for every taste, but if you ask me everyone needs three or four to mix and match with different purses. Here's what Wellspring has to say about the Flip Note: "Flip Notes are perfect for notes on-the-go as they fit snugly inside pockets, purses, or briefcases! Flip Notes make perfect gifts for loved ones, teachers, hosts & coworkers. Each Flip Note features a stylish debossed metal spring-loaded case with a blank white note pad and retractable pen."

I carry my Flip Note everywhere, switching it from purse to tote to diaper bag. Its hard case makes it durable, while protecting the note pad inside. I love that I can jot down notes or lists, and the edges of the paper don't get torn, smudged, or frayed. And get this, the pen that comes with the Flip Note holds the entire case shut. You can never lose the pen because it's always right there, connected to the paper. No more digging and searching in your purse or bag for a pen! How great is that! Not that it needs more selling points, but the Flip Note is also far superior to other notepads because the hard case supports the notepad, making it easy to write on. No more floppy, flimsy notepads for me! So if you have an occasion coming up that requires a unique and lovely gift for a special woman, or you just want to treat yourself, you can't go wrong with a Flip Note. Don't forget to order refill pads and pens. And did you know that a Flip Note appeared on two episodes of Ugly Betty?

I have 2 Flip Notes (pictured above) to giveaway to a couple of lucky readers. Here's how to enter:
