Grunge toilet paper mini album

Day 9 of 31 days of video's.

Here is my completed toilet paper tube mini album. It was quite cute as I asked everyone in the house what they thought this was made from. No one guessed it was from toilet paper tubes. Ashley's boyfriend thought maybe leather, teehee.


Here are some photo's. This first one is of the front and back cover. I made that tiny paper medallion :)
Page 1 and page 2.
Page 3 and page 4. On the 4th page that is from plastic packaging that I stamped on. Page 5 and page 6. That little file folder opens up to reveal the "live" ticket.Page 7 and page 8.I really enjoyed making the mini album. I wanted to make one of these last year. Yeah, check it off my list ;) Another goal completed, but I am sure I will be making some more of these. I sure won't run out of empty toilet paper tubes, I can assure you of that, lol.

Onto my day:

I took 2 long naps today. I was just drained. I did manage to take Heather out for lunch. We just went to a little place close to us. Then we came straight home and I took my second nap. Heather knew I wasn't up to par today, so she said we should just stay home. But I wanted some Finn pancakes and didn't want to make them myself.

I only had one glass (and a small one at that) of pop (Coke) today. Not by choice though. We didn't have any more and I didn't have the energy to go out and get some. I had to go out tonight to pick Kristy up from a friends house. She ran into the grocery store to pick up some more pop. But I was proud of myself, I didn't have any. It was after 6:00, new rule for me no pop after 6:00.

Hope you had a creative Wednesday.

  9. Who knew you could make such beautiful things from a tube of ass wipe paper!!!

    Heehee...I laughed when I saw the word "pop". I haven't used that word in so long now (because everyone here calls it "soda" - they don't get "pop")....so now it sounds funny!

  16. Oh, I love this. The coolest thing I've seen done with a tp tube. Some of the ones I've seen make me NOT want to attempt one. But this is too fun. Love the paper! I have that stack too and might just have to "borrow" the idea! :)
