I heart Amy Tangerine! Not only is she just the sweetest, she also designs amazing paper and these fantastic mini books! I am having such a blast with this book!
I used some of Amy’s fabric paper and Thickers to create the cover. Then I stamped out “twenty eleven” in Smitty’s ABCs on to a Bannerific banner. Both of these sets are just so much fun for scrapbooking and mini books. I think journaling looks adorable in the banners, too!
I added some stitching to my card stock and frayed the edges of the fabric paper with my finger nail. I added some Distress Ink to my banner to go along with all of the stitching and fraying. This is just the beginning of my attempt to scrapbook my Hawaii trip from August/September. My goal is to finish by Thursday! Wish me luck!

Cute! I just got an Amy Tangerine book to hopefully put stuff in from my trip to CHA. I doubt I will do anything with it while I am there but I will probably throw it in my bag anyway. 🙂 It's a new adventure and I thought it would be a great time to try out a little mini book!
Good luck on finishing by your goal date!! This is so cute. 🙂
That is a cute book! Have fun completing it! I did a couple mini's from our trip to Costa Rica, I like doing mini's of vaca's b/c you can do several and not get "burned out" on one event! Good luck finishing by Thursday?
Love the cover! So adorable! Good luck!
Cute Cute Cute! I just love how you spelled out the year…why didn't I ever think of that?!? XOXO
I love everything about this! So pretty!
Anxiously awaiting the finished book. Can't wait to see it.
Cool! I have the same mini but it's like new… ehemmm I hope you give me some inspiration 😉 I love the cover so I can't wait to see the entire book! Good luck! Bannerific banners fit great with Amy's style!
This is fantastic! Please share some of the inside pages when you have them completed. Thanks for the inspiration.

This looks great – I would LOVE to see the whole thing!!! I love these books by Amy Tan, they're SO fun!! I've picked one up with a few extra papers & embellies and can't wait to dig in myself!!!
