Spotty Cats

I want to share another mini book with you. I made this when I was still a member of Caroline's design team, but even though I left a while ago it was a class that has only just been released so I couldn't share it until now.

It is a really simple mini book. It looks very plain at the moment as I only used what came in the kit, but I will add my own embellishments now and pretty it up. It showcases my fur babies of course and is such a simple mini book to make. You only need one sheet of cardstock and bits of patterned paper and ribbon. You simply cut the cardstock into pages 4" x 4 3/4 " round the corners and then punch holes through to thread the ribbons. You have a little mini book with pages 4 x 4. No mini book could be simpler than that, now could it?

They make such quick and simple books and are lovely gifts to give away to people. I have made loads of them for all sorts of things. You can see others I have made in the Design Team Gallery at ATDML (a Disney parade mini book) and also at Jillybeans (My all time favourite mini book of autumn)

Today is a lovely day (not weather wise you understand - that is pretty horrible) because it is Sunday but I don't have to worry about trying to do everything by the end of today. I have weeks to do things and that is fabulous.

I have done a couple of design team assignments and am going to spend the rest of the day working on more travel pages. I am loving doing them but am trying to space them out a little bit as I don't want the album to be finished. Does that make sense? You know, when you are loving something so much you don't want it to be over. I also bought some lovely little altering bits at Hobbycraft yesterday. I always said I didn't DO altering, but I am almost ashamed to say I am quite getting into it LOL. So I plan on doing some of that too.
