Travel mini out of one piece of 12 x 12

Hello everyone, just a sneak peek today, as it's my turn to post over on the Calico Crafts blog.
I am showing you how to put a mini together out of 1 piece of 12 by 12 and then how I decorated it with the help of some fab Kaisercraft papers. Calico is one of the few places where you can buy these papers by the sheet. That way you don't land up with some of those inevitable papers in a collection that you don't like.

Anyway, for all the details, just click HERE. Some of you have told me that when you do so you can't see my post. Trust me it will be there, all you need to do is refresh your page.

Anyway, thanks so much for your time like always!!! Weekend is nearly here, so enjoy!!

Just got a whole lot of new stamps from a brilliant place called the Stamp Smith. This is the image that I first saw on Docraft and really liked. I asked the friend who has used it in an ATC, where she got it. Well she borrowed it from a friend who got it from ebay as a one off. But.... it had a title. I googled the title, and hey presto found the site. They have great stamps and offer a really friendly fast service. I highly recommend them!
