My neice and nephew are staying with us for the month. I found some time yesterday to do some papercrafting with my neice, who's turning 11 on the 20th.
I had saved some toilet paper tubes with this project in mind, and we created this Butterfly Tube Mini Album. It's the first time I've made a mini with tubes, and I was surprised at how quick it all came together. The most important part is that she really seems to like it. :)
Hoping to find more time to create with her while she's here.
*** Edited for clarification: I've had a few questions posted here and emailed to me about the tubes I used. They are just empty toilet paper roll tubes.... basically just cardboard that I flattened out. When you bind them together on one end, each tube creates its own pocket perfect for pull out pages. I hope I've explained it well now.

Happy creating! :)
