Yeah it's cool as a taster and in conjunction with your main site and portfolio it would definitely grab my attention. short sweet, bullet points.
Having said that if I was interested I'd still want to see a full resume with education etc on it. You say you've no formal design education , this doesn't matter as you're natural talent shows. I'd still want to see other qualifications such as english language, math and a broad range of sucbjects which would indicate a well rounded individual.
You need to put all the corny stuff in too like :
are you a team player ? - interest in sports etc is a good way of illustrating this. If you aren't into that sort of thing surely you've kicked a football around with some friends one saturday afternoon - hey presto a football team just don't claim to be a mountaineer cos the odds are that the one armed man interviewing you lost his arm climbing everest and will want to get up to date with what mountaineers are up to nowadays.
Have you had a summer job ? this shows that you are able and willing to do sh*tty mundane chores that may arise - believe me 90 % of what you will do in your new job will be boring as hell. Shop works a good one to put down and hard to check up on, this shows your ability to deal with the general public, clients, difficult customers in person, over the phone AND in writing 
Have you any other "outside" interests - even "socialising when work and study commitments allow" will do.
In short - yes it's good as a taster but you need to put some meat on the bones and do one in tradtional format (word usually).
