My Blog Friend Mini-book

Oh how I love a mini-book!
They're such a fun little way to hold a collection
of photos and document a fun event.



I knew while Carrie and I were in England that I wanted to make a mini-book when we got home. And I knew that I wanted it to hold photos of all the blog friends we'd met while we were there. I loved working on this book and recalling the sweet memories of being with these lovely ladies (and one small gentleman).


Gosh, it was so awesome to have the opportunity to meet so many blog friends in person while we were in England earlier this year. I loved having the chance to go back through our photos and relive our time together. As I worked on this book, I thought of each friend as I worked on her (his) page. And even though the process of making this book was a bit drawn out, I loved every minute of it!

Here's a look at all the pages, with names and links of each friend under their photos. :o)

Alison and Deb


 Helena and Jacky

 Becky and Mel

 Rhona, and her daughters and grand-daughters. So sweet!

My friend, The Boy Child, and his mum, Ruth.

 
Sweet memories of time spent with lovely friends.
It just doesn't get much better than that.
 
Thanks again to Lisa-Jane for the cute Union Jack paper she sent me as part of Sian's Great Big Swap of Very Small Things.

What a lovely mini book and what happy memories. I also feel blessed because if you hadn't come to the UK I wouldn't have met up with all our other blog friends. Blissful memories.

How lovely! A great reminder and a special tribute to friendship. The red, white and blue is a great unifying factor. ... And I am reminded of how awful the weather was for you. Wishing you could be here now - it is warm and clear and beautiful, day after day!

I love what you've done with the papers and that it has made so many so happy with reminders of your trip. We're having such hot weather at the moment that you would probably feel right at home!
