Hey! I am sharing a project on the American Crafts blog today! It's a minibook I created a few months ago using lots of instagram photos and an Amy Tangerine Daybook. You can see the full book here.

    Interesting timing. I should back up and tell you … cute project. (as usual.)
    I just tweeted them to encourage interest in their manufacturing an 5.5 x 8.5 binder album. I think tons of us would use it. Agree?

    Love it, Elise! Super playful. I’m looking forward to the release of the new books. Thinking a fun summer weekend documentation project will be on the calendar this year 🙂

    ok, I had resisted buying a Daybook so far, but I think you’ve sent me over the edge. 🙂

    I love Amy Tan’s mini books! They are just so hard to come by here in Canada. Yours is fabulous.

    Love it. I often have to tie something around my books cause they get too fat, also. I really like the look!

    This is the first daybook i’ve ever seen(it’s been a while since I’ve been to a scrapbook store…) but I’m hooked!
    The only sad thing about minibooks is that I can’t seem to figure out how to present them once they’re done – they usually end up being hidden in a drawer. How do you store/present your minibooks?

    I keep them in baskets. Most are in my office, the ones that are EP related are downstairs in our big bookshelf.
