Loo Roll Tag Book

I was back home in time, so therefore, lucky enough to attend yesterday's workshop given by my friend Jayne. It was a tag book made from loo roll or kitchen roll tubes. It was good fun and some people made really lovely, elegant, neat books but I decided that if I was using loo rolls mine was going to be grungy!! Jayne has made these for a while but the idea, featured by someone else, appears in this month's Craft Stamper magazine. The rolls, officially, should be covered with printed or decorated paper but I used gesso and Distress reinkers on mine. I discovered that the colours dry so differently when applied over gesso compared to how they appear on the card tags. A lesson learned!
We had good fun day, as always, and were joined by Olive who won 3rd prize in my recent blog candy draw. So nice to meet up in person and I hope she comes again.
