Mini Album from TP rolls

Well, inspiration comes from EVERYwhere!  Would you believe these little pages are made using toilet paper rolls?  Mash 'em flat, cover with patterned paper and embellish as desired!  Add a tag to slip inside and...voila!  I used all scrap papers on these pages.  I have rings to bind them into a little album (I'll post a completed pic).  These are so fun and quick to make and will make terrific stocking stuffers or Teachers' gifts for the school kids.  (For a tutorial, go here ).  This album uses 3 TP rolls, the first is a pic of the fronts, then one of the backs.


This is the first page - or cover. I made a little pocket on the front for an additional tag.


Then page two.


And finally the last page - back cover.

Family Halloween party door prize

Every year for our Halloween party, I supply the door prize.  Usually it is something I've hand crafted.  One year I made soap, lotion and powder and made up a bath basket.  Another year I made canister candles.  This year it's a copycat recipe book.  It's 6x6 and has 22 copycat recipes in it plus additional white cs pages in the back for what ever :)  Here is a pic of the cover and 3 of the 22 recipes.
