Mini books to share

I love making mini books - mostly as gifts.  I have a Zutter bind-it-all which is very useful for whipping up quick gift book.  Here are 2 which I made a while ago.

Matchbook album

I used the idea of a book of matches to make an album of my girls

The outside of the matchbook is covered in protective plastic

the mini pages are bound only on the left with the ribbon

Inspirational chipboard album

I covered this chipboard album in paper and my favourite quotes.

I made this album at a very difficult time in my life,

and kept it next to my bed for comfort and encouragement.

I still page through it often

Tomorrow is election day in South Africa - an opportunity to exercise our democratic rights and responsibilities by voting.  I'm praying for a peaceful and fair election.
