I make tons of altered composition books to give as gifts but have never made one to keep for myself. I decided to make one of the mini ones to keep in my purse. Of course since it was for me it needed to have yellow, orange and red in it! The other day at Jo-Ann's, I found this paper pack from DCWV called Citrus and it is just full of yummy bright colored papers that I love. It is also the thicker card stock weight paper which is perfect for these little mini composition books. The covers on the minis is much thinner than the ones on the full size books so the thicker papers really help. for my monogram I used the Ambassador Monogram set from Papertrey Ink and CTMH Orange ink. The ribbon is from Shirley's 2 Girls and was in a pack that I won from one of their challenges. I will post the cards from my Copic class a little later in the week.
