Recycled Cardboard Mini Book
Hi friends this year I am taking mini steps into mini album making and a mini book such as this one made from a 12 x 12 inch paper is the perfect beginner's project as it's quick and easy to complete without making you feel overwhelmed!
One Sheet Mini Book
This little 3.5 x 3.5 inches mini has 16 pages and 7 pockets for tags and tickets. The best thing about this design is that it is perfect to showcase a single 12 x 12 inch pretty pattern paper you may be hoarding for ages!
And the added bonus is you don't really need to use expensive chipboard to make the covers as its an ideal opportunity to recycle a sturdy cardboard box like the one below!

Inked the heat embossed parchment flowers in 2 shades for a two toned effect to create my flower and added heat embossed golden leaves for a bit of glamour.
Heat Embossed Flower
Metallic embellishments are so fun to add to mini books since unlike cards mini books can take on a bit of the heavy weight stuff you have in your crafty stash!
Metallic Hearts and Arrow
What is a romantic project without a dash of red and a bit of gold !! Hehe but I think I did go overboard with the red glitter goo!!What do you think....? The metallic corners [from Vishakha Mittal] had a bronze look originally and I gave it a rubbing with inka gold to change its color.

The pattern paper I used had lovely floral hearts and it was fun to add a touch of pristine white with the heat embossed flowers and a dash of greenery with "over the edge" leaf stamping on the edges of the pages.

The book gave me the ideal chance to use some lovely metallic antique brads Vishakha Mittal had sent me!
Metallic Accents
Love the subtle texture these metal knobs add to the inside pages and one's fingers immediately reach out to caress them!

And the view below shows how the pages and the cute tags look!!
