Mini Memories

This was one of the most delightful jobs I have done! I created a mini album for my friend Jean, for the Mini Me an Album group on Your Paper Pantry. Everytime we talk, Jean always asks about our New Zealand slang words etc, so I decided to theme her mini around our kiwi language, called "Kiwi 101". I used a colour palette of blues/greens, to reflect our beautiful scenery, and used a mixture if buttons, flowers, swirl stamps, paua shells etc to embellish. Each page was a different design, all with hidden journalling spots. On the outside was the word/phrase, and inside the journalling spot was the meaning behind the saying. I also added a bit of New Zealand Trivia here and there. And the very last suprise was a certificate awarded to Jean for passing "Kiwi 101".
