Sharing Your Story : New Book Giveaway

Im in the process of creating a mini book of 1st photos that my 5 yr old took with her first camera. Its fun just going through the pictures!

I am currently working on a mini-book for my husband - his baby years thru high school. Mini books are my favorite way to scrapbook because I have a definte "end" to the project/finite pages to scrapbook.

I > mini books, and have done so many that it's hard to pick a favorite! My future plans include making a mini book of me!
Looking forward to seeing your new book!

I'm working on a minibook for a friends 21st birthday. At her party I asked all the guests to write their favourite memory of her or a wish for the future on a strip of paper. I'm putting a book together with photos and the well wishes which I really hope to finish soon.

I'm thinking of creating a mini book about my trip to Europe. I love the new making memories passport line - it has really inspired me.

My favorite mini book which is started but not finished, is one I did about a game my son and I play called I love you 100. He tells me he loves me, I say I love you too (2), he says I love you three, and I say 4, and on and one. It was a combination counting/story book of this sweet little game we play together. Too fun.

Mini books are my favorite..although I find myself buying a ton and being afraid to use them because I might want it later. I am planning to create a mini using all fabric and felt. (Including the pictures on the fabric) To showcase the prevoius year for grandma. I can't wait to see your new book..I am forever inspired by YOU!

I can't wait for this book! :)
My favorite mini book is one I made this past year that described me, based on a quote by Dr. Eugene S. Collenger.
I want to make a mini book soon about the new addition to our family-our dog, Ike.
Thanks!

I'd love to do a mini book about my daughter's favorite books and things she's into right now (she's almost 3:)

I just finished a mini-book called "Home Sweet Homes". We've lived in 9 houses in the 23 years we've been married! I used a house-shape chipboard book (I can't remember the company!) and on the left side of each set of pages I put a picture of the house, and on the right side I journaled on a transparancy -the address, # of rooms, characteristics, and what we loved best about that particular house. I used a line of paper from "My Minds Eye" and I think it's really cute! IMHO, obviously! ;)

My favorite mini album is a travel journal I made for a trip to Boston. I used a basic format for the journaling each day, collected ephemera along the way, and then included the ephemera and photos in the album when I got home.
Can't wait to check out the new book!

I recently made a mini-book out of hambley screen prints transparinsies. My best friend was married in Cuba in April and i needed a quick and dirty way to remember the trip. So, i made a little mini book with smaller photos than normal (2*3). It's super cute!

I love working on an old vintage book I altered into a mini scrapbook about who my mom was. She died 9 years ago and it has become an important way for me to document her life so my children can learn and get to know her and how important she was to me.

Cannot WAIT to get my hands on your book. I'm working on a minibook of some of the notes my now 9 year old daughter has sent my way as she's gotten older. It includes ones from when she was very little until now.

i have an acrylic album that i have to use next. i'm very excited by the possiblities that present themselves to me with this book. i'm thinking of using it to document our summer by the pool.
i just want to let myself PLAY with it and go wild.

Congratulations on your new book - I look forward to reading it.
My favorite mini-book is one I made in one of your classes - Today You - once I finished it I gave it to my son to read. He was surprised by what I wrote and he was really touched by it. It was one of those moments he and I will treasure for ever.
Thanks

I really love minis and cant wait to read your new book, Im sure it will add several more ideas to my list of minis that I want to create. If I have to pick one that I really want to do it would be one about my childhood, while it may only offer a small glimpse into my past, it is something I often wish my parents had left for me. I find myself wondering so much about their pasts that I never thought to ask them while they were alive.

My favorite mini so far was a tag book I made for my mom for mother's day, with all the family members most important to her--which made her cry upon opening it. It made me so happy to make her that happy. -Melissa

I just completed a mini book called "Everyday Things". It shows a little of who I am through the things that I use everyday, like my laptop, flat iron (for my hair), lip balm, etc. Very fun!
I have been checking my local scrapbook store for your book almost every day this month! Looking forward to it!
