Some Special-Order Minis to share with you

Hello friends,
Thought I'd share some minis that I've been working on.  These items were for a baby shower.  The mom-to-be is decorating the nursery as a jungle theme, primarily with monkies.  The mother-in-law wanted a mini that would flip out to show both parents at 3 months, 6 months, etc with a picture of their baby in the center.  She also wanted it to be a diaper bag design.  So this is what I came up with:

This diaper bag was made from a priority mail box and covered with fabric from Joanne's.  The sides and handles were made from grungeboard:

And here is the mini sitting inside the diaper bag.  It's quite thick.  The spine is also made from grungeboard and covered in the same fabric as the outside of the bag.   The inside was difficult--it's covered in coordinating fabric with the raw edges covered with brown ribbon.

And here is the front of the mini.  I used the DCWV  paperline.  

This is the first flap that opens to the left showing Dad as a newborn.  On the flap that opens to the right, I added a poem--then it flips open to show..........

Mom as a newborn.  The middle section is left blank so they can add a picture of Colin when he's born (sometime in November).  I did minimal embellishing because I needed the mini to close flat or it wouldn't be able to fit in the diaper bag.

Throughout the mini, there are double pages that open in which I added photo mats and poems.  This shows the invitation.

I continued to do this throughout the mini.  If you want to see the rest of it, please watch the video below:

Thanks for looking!  If you're interested in a Diaper Bag Mini, please email me for specifics.  Currently, this diaper bag with mini is going for $75.00 plus shipping.
