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 ;)
just gorgeous!! love the colours, and all the tags... *sigh*

VastaaPoistaThanks 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
VastaaPoistaWow...this is fabulous. You have such wonderful pictures in your book!
VastaaPoistaYour DP colour choices look great and all the details are just right!
Look forward to seeing the cover when you finish that...wonder what you will do to it?
That is stunning - beautifully made and a brilliant idea. Thanks for sharing xx
