Inspired by Minxy

I went onto Minxy's blog from where I found a link to Snazzy's Design Team Blog cos she is a DT member there and boy did I get inspired by the mini book and bag that she made.  you can watch her Youtube video here on how to make the book that I have done.

I had fun making my own paper using a punched piece as a mask with Distress inks in Spiced Marmalade, Barn Door, Walnut Stain and Fired Brick cos you only need one 12"x12" piece of paper to make all the inside pages!









I used Tim's pine cone die to make the large rose and just color washed the little ones from my stash for the cover.



Though I still have to find photos to put in it, I have discovered that the pockets are the perfect size for ATCs  and have done the base designs for them to go in the mini book.

I can't tell you how much fun and fast this was to make, so thank you Minxy for showing this to the world for me to find and create!

Thanks for popping by
