Are any of you caught up in miniatures these days? Not everything has to be about a mini album, because I thought it would be just as fun to make mini pages to be displayed more creatively - like with these adorable mini clothespins or maybe in a frame that can be changed from time to time. I was very happy to be invited to guest design on the Doodlebug blog this week using the theme of miniatures and their Snips and Snails collection - please see the end of my post for the giveaway details...
The secret to a good mini page is to add just enough detail to make it interesting, but not to overload the "small" page. I love how the wallet-sized photo is about the same size as the punch out journal card. They create a nice balance together and really make the sentiment stand out.
Who doesn't love mini clothespins and banner stickers? I slightly overlapped the banner stickers and added mini pearls to connect them. Doodlebug makes some of the very best buttons and their boutique buttons are so cute I really just want to sew them on my children's or my clothes.
I used my typewriter to add this sentiment to the fun little journal card. First I backed it with blue cardstock so that I could roll it through the typewriter without bending or tearing the fun notebook edges. Then I added some of the shaped star brads to the bottom of the card.
I just love how well these colors go together. The bakers twine makes a fantastic border to unify all of the pages in their design, as well as a great clothesline to hang mini pages from.
Now for the fun part - head to the Doodlebug blog and leave a comment there telling them you were here and you will be entered into a giveaway for some awesome goodies. You will have until the Sunday evening to enter. The winner will be announced on Tuesday morning.
Thank you so much for stopping by today!
