Can't Scrapbook to Save My Life Weekend







So, I decided to make a mini book.  It is called an x-book!  It is an easy book that you make with just one sheet of 8 1/2" x 11" piece of paper and then decorate! The only thing hard about making this book was the Modge Podge.  It wasn't required, but I wanted to give the book some stability!  I had embossed a cool bird and flourish image with a Cuttlebug folder over the sun before attaching it to the cover.  I was also thrilled to be able to get 9 photos on the six "pages." The book is really tiny--about 4 1/4" by 2 1/4".  I decided to use some of the many photos from the Phoenix vacation to fit The Paper Variety's challenge this week!
