The things we make....



Can you believe that these actually come in handy for us scrapbook and cardmaking ladies?! I have seen some of the norwegian cardmakers making some stunningly beautiful and fun cards and mini albums with them.

So..I had to give it a go as well ;o)

Just flatten the paper tube between the palms of your hands (anyway..that`s how I did it). Trim a piece a paper to fit all around it. And then embellish! You can close it in one end, and then stick a tag inside. I kept mine open, and just wrote my greetings on a matching piece of paper. I liked the look of the paper sticking a bit out in both ends.

I have seen some use their Zutter machine on it as well, and it makes beautiful minibooks. I don`t know who startes this trend, so I just give all you talented ladies out there a big thank you for the inspiration :o)

I just some scraps on mine, papers from Gudruns beautiful summerline (3ndypaper), and some old MM paper. Flowers from Prime, die cuts from MM (Noteworthy), buttons and ribbons.
