Happy Thursday, everyone!  I'm here today with a quick and easy way to whip up a little mini book perfect for documenting all of you summertime memories...

First, I took a few pages from the Lakeside Journal Quote Book and scored them down the middle of the fold where you would otherwise have cut them apart...

 

I scored the page that I chose to be the front and back twice to make a sort of "spine" so the other pages would fit inside more precisely...

 

Next, I layered my pages on top of each other in the order that I wanted them to be and used my sewing machine to sew down the center of the spine that I created in the step above.  

And ta da!!!!! Insant mini book...

I kept the embellishing pretty simple because of the small size of the book and I wanted my photos to take center stage...

I sized all of my photos at 2.25 x 2.25 for this album...

I also used a small corner rounder to round off the corners of each of my pages...

 

I plan on filling in all the books I read over the summer on this page...

Shop Items Used:  Pebbles (Lakeside Journal Quote Book, Lakeside Phrase Stickers), Basic Grey (Candy Buttons), Lily Bee (Sweet Shoppe Chit Chat Stickers, Sweet Shoppe Letter Stickers)

Our summer is just beginning so I might have to make a few more of these adorable mini's :)  Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great day!
