Die Cuts & Journalling cards ... a mini book



You get some interesting ideas when you hang out at a friends scrapbooking store. One thing i noticed earlier this year, was that sheets of die cuts, or journaling cards don't sell as fast as the paper line they are with and that some customers truly didnt know how they would use them ... So when i looked at the uber cute sweet shoppe line I thought to myself ... hey, those journaling cards and die cuts are just too cute!!! ... i need to show people how to use these ... and Voila! the idea of a a mini book popped into my head!



I know most of you have seen this IRL as it has been in the shop for a couple of months now, but I did think it was time to blog it ... well that and the fact that Collage Press has a little die cut challenge on right now ... hehehe ...


So here it is .... or at least here are parts of it, i didn't include all of the pages ... and I haven't done the journalling ... but this whole little book is about how DD and I went to a Caribbean Festival and kept finding sweets ... well that and that weird ad campaign at a bus stop!


Comment of the Day ... DD says "seriously, did we buy these cupcakes as props or do we actually get to eat them?" ... ah yes, the child of a scrapper ....
