What do My Little Shoebox, Punky Sprouts and Tattered Angels have in common?

A Mini Book!!!!

One of my projects for the months was to make a mini album using this really cool, large sized (6x12), mini book from Punky Sprouts, along with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist and the Just Add Butter line from My Little Shoebox.

My thought behind this book was to use recipes that my 10 year old daughter can make. I think she will love this book!
Sweet Treats



I actually took one of the canvas pages out of my book to make the canvas apron, which was misted with glimmer mist, glued on some lace ruffles and some polka dot ribbon.

Don't this just make you hungry!?!?!?!?!? Which is your favorite?

Have a great weekend!

Melanie, you are the QUEEN of the mini book -- this one rocks!!! It's so adorable; that little worm might be my favorite. Wondering if my grandkids would like something like this ... they all like to help cook at Grandma's house
