put my link here too. loved the challange. keep 'em coming!

First timer here, never posted on a blog and NEVER share my creative things. So here goes. Love the newsletter and am really loving everyone's books. Very inspiring!

Ali, I signed up for your newsletter a couple of weeks agao and have not received anything. Can you help me? Love your ideas!!!!

Looks fab - but makes me want to buy stuff from Autumn Leaves and it doesn't look like they do online sales? Or am I just being very thick? Please help!

Well this was fun...reading all these comments and checking out the links....I however have been unable to work on the challenge this week (taking care of a husband with upcoming back surgery and a mondo amount of pain right now..) so I was sad to have not been able to play but this made MY DAY! You guys all rock. As usual Ali I loved yours! You all are so talented!

I did this one earlier this year, but seeing everyone else's, I'm getting really inspired and might do another one! In the meantime, here's the "My Favorite Things" mini book I did using the Rusty Pickle Card Keeper and Chatterbox.

Thanks for the inspiration! Had so much fun putting this little book together! Here is my link: http://rondapalazzari.typepad.com/helpmeronda/2006/09/my_favorite_thi.html

This challenge was exactly what I needed after a long day at work! I am in love with the results and am glad to know that inspiration can strike even when I thought I was brain dead. Sweet.

I just got word you're coming to Tracy, CA in Feb.! So excited! It's my hometown. Ask me, and I promise to show you where all the Starbucks are (and the Roasted Bean, our local coffee shop). Keep in mind that San Francisco is about an hour away...you could make this a really fun trip!
You said to e-mail you if I didn't subscribe in time for the first newsletter. I didn't, but have no idea how to e-mail you!

I've only gotten half of my mini book made, but here is the link.

hopefully I'll be able to finish next week.

Lovin' your challenge! Every minute! Here's my finished mini-book - Looking forward to seeing you in a few weeks in NY!
I'll bring it so you can see it in person - it's always better to touch it, love it, feel it, right? In the mean time, here it is:

Thanks Ali!! great challenge, it's nice to finish something in one session. Choosing just 5 was hard though... here is my effort http://allipats.blogspot.com/2006/09/minibook.html

Thank you Ali! This really got me going and you are right, it does feel good to have a completed project done. http://kimmydukes.blogspot.com/

Hi, New to the group and this is my first reply ever to a blog (new to it.) I am working on the challenge - but mine will probably be photoless - hope that is ok.
If anyone has a copy of the first newsletter it would be awesome if I can read it.
Thanks
Suzzi

Fun! Love the idea of having a basket of mini-books for family & friends to pick up and look through when we're hanging out in the living room!

LOVE IT ALL - I've never done a challenge before and I've never posted on Twopeas before, so you've inspired me to do two news things - thank you.

I did it...I haven't figured out how to post a photo yet, but wanted you to know that I really enjoyed the challenge and doing something totally different for me. Thanks for the inspiration.

Thanks for this challenge... I had a ton of fun! Here's my minibook!

Ali, thanks for the awesome challenge! I LOVED the topic. I think it's going to be fascinating to look back on this little book 20 years from now. I also enjoyed stepping out of my comfort zone since I rarely do mini albums. It ended up being a lot of fun. Thanks for the inspiration. I'm looking forward to your next challenge!
Here's the link to my album

thank you so much ali - I loved this challenge! here's my minibook: http://danipeuss.blogspot.com/2006/09/aezine-challenge.html

I have been waiting for something like this! As a new school year started with our family, I knew I wanted to challenge myself educationally with my scrapbooking. The first AE zine arrives and WHAM! - here is the challenge I've been looking for. I enjoyed thinking about and creating this mini album. and I really enjoyed receiving the challenge to motivate and direct my scrappin time. so looking forward to the next one!

somehow my link didn't show up the first time (my first post so I wasn't sure what I was doing).
let's try this way
