I finally broke out my Bind-it-all this weekend. What a fun & fabulous little toy. I made this address book to celebrate my friends. I keep addresses in this book of all the friends and Family I like to send cards too. Can you believe its made out of index cards? The cover is chipboard. I used the cardboard inserts that come in the Stampin Up designer paper packs. They were trimmed down to be slightly larger than the cards. I covered them with Berry Bliss designer paper and a glue stick. I can not take credit for the idea of the book. that came from Beate. Take a look at hers HERE.
Enjoy!!!!
