My first Mini Album......

I've attempted my first mini album over the last few days and really enjoyed making it, in fact I had to drag myself to bed one night at 1am! I just couldn't stop! I was on a roll!!!

Anyway the lovely Heidi from Fresh Vintage Crafts emailed me and asked me if I would like to use some of her products from her new etsy shop? Would I ever! Here is what she sent to me in a gorgeous kit that is available from the 1st of April......

Here is what I produced from this kit.......

I made it as a sort of a "Missing Book" for my girls. We are leaving them for 2 weeks while we go OS so if they get sad and miss us they can look through the book and hopefully it will ease the missing a little....x

If you click on the images you can get a detailed shot.

Thanks for letting me play with your new kit Heidi!

Thanks for looking everyone....would love a little feedback as to what you tink about my mini book....
