Mini LOVE album

I have seen this idea on youtube through several different videos and just thought it was such a great idea to recycle.  I live in a house of 6 women, so we use A LOT of TP, I also started saving my paper towel rolls and will cut them down to the same size.  I used the toilet paper rolls AND I used up scraps. This is a GREAT project for your scraps and little embellishments that you might have just begging for some use! I mainly used mod podge, matte finish for all my gluing. So scotch quick dry too.  Not much, though, mostly mod podge.  (consequently, this is my first time using mod podge, I think I like it!!)  OH- the envelope is one I made...not a tp roll :). 

Sorry for the poor video job...Hard to hold a camera and flip pages.  The second video shows the pull outs from each page.  All sound submitted by Lillian.  :)

I had a lot of fun making it, hope you enjoy.

Some Cards I've been working on




I really love how this card turned out, very simple but elegant
This was Lillian's 5th birthday card, I made it using the gypsy I borrowed from my niece.  Love how it turned out

 A card with a stamped verse that my sister purchased for me for Christmas.  LOVE them
 Thank you card, stamped with a verse.  You can't see it, but the large flower is embossed with glitter.  Very pretty.  Did some line doodles to finish it off bc it just seemed like it needed something, then added the ribbon. 
 My niece and nephew are expecting their first baby, this card is for them. Made it on cricut craft room.  Welded two of  the onesie images.  I already cut the little plaque or tag and I cut their last name using cricut craft room. 
 A birthday cad I found partially embossed and finished it off bc I'm out of bday cards
Cute little card made entirely out of my scrap paper bags.  That's my mission, to get rid of some scrap and using only scraps for cards.  The tiny print is a verse stamped.
