Mini Me's

 Scrapbookers are just original folks, are we not?  And we will take a picture of anything that seems out of the ordinary or is an expression of our life experience; but for our group, snapshots of ordinary occasions just wasn't enough!

Instead we came up with mini me's; much like 'flat stanley's' we felt a mini me that could sit in places we couldn't fit or travel with friends where we couldn't go would add a dimension to our year of photography opportunity! 

It all started with Terrie Lynn (absent here due to her recent surgery, photos of mini me adventures there to follow) who brought out her Sizzix dies and cut bodies for each of us to decorate and form into mini versions that expressed each of us as individuals.  It's art!  Let's face it!  We were all cast from the same mold and yet turned out so different, expressing ourselves as only we can. 

Our first outing as a group came at the Cougar Cupboard Charity Crop with the debut of the Fabulous Four; Susan Lowe, Sandra Kay Tate, Leslie St.Aubin and Tina Festi.  Let's face it, we were such a hit that we were not to be outdone and the final lineup is below. 


Three more mini me's were created from a cricut paperdoll cartridge and they stood with us to celebrate the upcoming year of photographic adventures.  Snap a shot, crop a pic, add a mini me!  Have fun with what you add to your scrapbooks this year, think outside the shot!
