No Project Life update today (I am heading home from a bachelorette adventure in Vegas this morning), but I wanted to share some progress peeks from my Palm Springs minibook that I was working on before I left. I am loving how this book is coming together and it's been fun to play around on a small scale again. I'll be sharing the finished project (and so many fun tips) later this week.

Do you still need a summer book? Grab one here.

And hey! Have you hopped out of your RSS reader and stopped by the blog recently? I gave it a fresh new look for summer and am excited about the change. Be sure to visit my rad June sponsors on the right sidebar while you're here.

    Can’t wait to see what you do with those AC Man of the House frame shapes. I’ve been sorta stumped/over thinking it with them. Can’t wait for the reveal this week!

    Hi Elise, I read your blog in google reader, so thanks for the heads up about your changes to your blog design – I am loving the shades of green – very fresh – and I love the way the green brings out the pops of blue in your blog header.

    I love your mini books! I am wanting to make some…with all my okd scrabook supplies. I am wondering how do mini boks hold up? Do you store them in a box or on a bookshelf? I guess these might be silly questions….but before i start making mini books, i kind of want to know they will hold up for my kids to enjoy some day? Love your blog and photis!

    hey Carrie! I keep them in baskets. Of the 50+ I have made, about 10 of them are prized possessions. Those are downstairs on our bookshelf (in a basket) They hold up decently. I have found it worth it to use good adhesive so all the pieces stay together. 🙂

    Is that Washi Tape? (about 5 photos down, with the palm tree). I love that!
