WOYWW #190 - TP core book

Last week I started to make a mini album of toilet paper roll cores. Now it´s almost finished. Only the texts are still missing. I had a really good time with this tiny album, and sure am making more of these! If you´re interested, look Vickie´s, and follow her links!
Also the cover is still unfinished:

My great grandparents

My grandfather as a sailor and my grandparents with their motorcycle

Their wedding pic  and my father as a little boy
My parents...

...their wedding pic and I as a child

My wedding pic and our girls when DD2 was born

DD1´s wedding and "one year later" pics. Olivia as a just born baby :)
 There are tags in every core to add text - and maybe I´m adding more pics to the pockets, too.

Happy Wednesday to everyone! You can find more workdesk pics from Julia´s Stamping Ground blog!
In fact this was not my work desk, but the living room carpet... sorry, Julia ;)

  20. Lovely stuff Tuire, just what a nice carpet is for - work desk photography studio! Love the album, really a great use of the tp rolls anyway, but I really like the colour theme you've got running and all the little pockets in addition to the core pocket, it's a real treasure.

  26. Thanks for stopping by, just had some extra time, below zero and high winds, good to stay inside. Your little album is totally adorable. I need to get moving on mine, saved all the TP rolls so should get busy. So many fun pictures, you have displayed. Went to the house today and brought home some things for my studio, which means rearrangeing AGAIN.. Enjoy the week
