Erin ... OMG!! You are correct!! I didn't even realize they matched the burlap ribbon ... that was a total accident!!
I punched the ticket punch, ran it thru the square lattice EF, folded them in half, put sticky strip along the edges of the ends, and then lined them up with the edge of the very vanilla CS. Since the sticky strip is approx 1/4" wide, 1/4" of the end of each end of the ticket is attached to the very vanilla. The tabs are staggered so you can see all of them when the book is closed.

I love your choice of colors for your mini album, especially the texture of the tab pulls that match the burlap ribbon. Perfect embellishment with the button and linen thread.

Wonderful mini book. The world is a better place with toilet tissue! Made me laugh. There's just something fabulous about using an everyday household item that just get thrown away.
Thanks for sharing your toilet tissue book. Your choice of dsp and colors are really quite wonderful.
