For today's first mini-challenge, we're going to be doing a Mash-Up. We're asking you to mash-up your bookish life with a non-bookish hobby or passion or talent! I'm going to be touching on two of my favorite things - travel and shopping. In each collage, I've included one book, one travel photo and one item that reminds me of the book!
