Sunshine

In honor of mini album month, my super talented teammate Nicole Nowosad gave me the awesome idea of taking my mini album apart and using the pieces of a LO!  Isn't she brilliant!  Not only was it fun to do, but I was able to do my whole LO without my paper cutter!  The mini album I had chosen to work with was Amy Tangerine Daybook.  It had lots of different pieces for me to work with.  Here is what I came up with.

 
 
I knew I had to use this great piece of paper with the sun on it, but I felt like it was missing something.  When I put the alpha on it, it really finished it off perfectly!
 


I fussy cut these little pink feathers from one of the papers in the book.  I love them!

 
 
Here is what the album looked like before I started.
 
 
 
Hope this has inspired you to tear your mini books to pieces too!  I know some of you have been hoarding them!!  LOL
 
Supplies used: Amy Tangerine Daybook mini, Amy Tangerine paper and bits, twine, buttons, washi tape, basic grey alphas, thickers
