So I have owned a Bind it All for quite some time and I have used it but not enough, so I decided to pull it out and put together a quick project. I have been wanting to make an envelope system to house my coupons and designated money for certain shopping areas. First I made the cover and back using cardstock and cardboard. I stamped a simple title page using Papertrey Stamps.
A blog that I follow, Kelleigh Ratzalff Designs, had an envelope template posted for free couple of months ago. I downloaded the templated and printed it on several sheets of patterned cardstock. I then used my scor-pal to finish the edges and they turned out great! By the way Kelleigh has many awesome tutorials!
Next I made individual labels for the envelopes using my Nestabilities and Papertrey Stamps. I still need to purchase some magnets to put behind the tag to keep it closed and items secured.
Lastly, I used my Bind it All to finish the project out. The project contains 9 envelopes, some I don't think I will use that often, so I put those in the back. I really like how this project turned out and I see myself using it all of the time. It is a great place to keep coupons for various stores and even lists since I tend to like a seperate list for each store. I already have some coupons clipped from this mornings paper and can't wait to use my new creation! Enjoy!
