Elsie Challenge & Mini-book

Elsie Challenge #15 ~ Scraplift an Idea!

I love the way Elsie lets some of her journaling strips or ribbons pop off her page, so I decided to do this with my title for this layout. I let the MM jigsaw chipboard alphas go off the page :) It was fun...oh, and I also scrapbooked 8.5"x11" ~ something I usually don't do too often!!!
