so excited
after drooling over the options for a day or two, i just made a fabulous purchase and can't wait to get this. thank you kelly rae! i am so excited. this is getting framed and hung in my baby girl's bedroom. so cute!
i've been having a lot of creative 'feelings' lately - mainly that i want/need to do more and need to make the time for it. i've been so tired at night (which is really the only time that i have) but i have got to make it work; i'm the one getting in the way. i used to have a good routine and at least had a night where i made time to do things. i have got to do that again. once i'm in the groove, it's all good. there are just too many projects in my head that are no good to me (or anyone else for that matter) unless i get them done!

minibook
so i've been thinking about minis a lot lately and while my kids were taking a nap today, i cranked out a little book for fun. i'm not sure what i'm going to do with it but it's all ready to be filled. here's what i did:
cut some cardboard down to 6x6 - i used 3 pieces
cut one 12x12 piece of white cardstock into two strips of 6x12
scored and folded the paper to 6x6
adhered the cardstock to the cardboard interior pages (not cover and back) so that the pieces are joined and held together by the paper
attached a piece of gaffer tape from the cover to the back across the binding lengthwise (just two little pieces)
attached a piece of 6x6 paper to the front and back cover, hiding the
tape
added some other bits and inked the edges
the cover is missing a little something but i haven't decided just what exactly....it's a pretty small book - only 4 interior white pages, but i like it! i haven't done a lot lately and it made me happy to make this in really no time at all... :) not to mention that i finally got my hands on some of that awesome 7gypsies paper and was itching to use it!
happy creating!
