I haven't bragged about my Christmas present! Here it is February already! Where has my mind been?
Sarge got me a Zutter Bind-it-All binder!
How clever is he to know just what I wanted? Oh, OK. I'll confess. I gave him some subtle hints. . . like PRINTING OUT A FULL PAGE ADVERTISEMENT!! (It was just a little hint.)
And here is the first project bound with my very own amazing Bind-it-All:
I love getting Christmas cards, and I can't bear to throw them away, so I took all the Christmas cards we received this year and bound them together into a little book.
I had a purchased set of covers that are 6" square, so I wound up cutting down most of the cards. And some of them needed additional card added to one dimension or the other.
In fact, each page was sort of a collage. I cut out some greetings and pasted borders, and so on. On some pages, I trimmed shapes so that the pages aren't all square. Then I used some wrapping paper to cover the front and back. I also pasted a list of the people these cards were from inside the front cover.
The end result is I have a nice, handy sized memento of the Christmas season - instead of an unwieldy stack of cards & envelopes!

Clever. I can see why you wanted it. I always end up throwing mine away because of little space. *sigh*
Oooh! I think I will add one of them to my Most Wanted list. The binder, not the book. I have my own cards to make my own book!
