What a fun way to recycle....

The TP mini album swap was such a success on my FB group that we did it again this month. The theme was "Summer Fun". Since I am in this "use it up" mode, I did not buy anything for this swap. I used papers & embellishments I had on hand by Imaginesce...cute penguins. I also tried out a new was to bind from the last one I made...instead of the rings I used large eyelets and ribbons. First I added a band to the end of each tube, adding an inch to the overall length of the tubes. Then, I punched the holes and added eyelets to the tabs. I ran a bunch of ribbon & raffia through the holes and tied to bind. Different....This is definitely a fun way to recycle...these are addicting!
