Here's Paula Deen's Recipe Card Book. Original price $5.00 and got it for $1.50. This book is good quality and very sturdy. Plus, I love the print.
I set the book facing down the other direction because I like the way the stamps settle down into the pockets. I didn't alter the book because they will be stored onto my shelf. I did however took one of the divider tabs and cut it into 6" x 5 3/4" to cover the words since they were written a different direction. I will definitely alter this for my mini book.
Here are the supplies needed. You will need 24 XL Eyelets and 40 4" x 6" white card stock papers,(Keep in mind I used one of the divider tabs for the front cover) and a Crop a Dile. The book comes with 8 divider tabs ( You can get some card stock and write the name of the stamps and adhere it on top) and 20 protective sleeves which can hold 40 stamps.
To create one page you will need 1 divider tab, 2 protective sleeves, 4 4" x 6" white card stock papers and 3 XL eyelets.
Place your protective sleeve on top of the divider for the front.
Place the other protective sleeve to the back then set your XL eyelets. This will keep from the holes on the protective sleeves from tearing since you will be turing the pages often.
Now you can add your stamps. The Greeting Farm, My Favorite Things, C.C. Designs stamps and many more fit perfect. If you create the stamp storage or mini book and post a video, I would love to see it. Please be sure to send me the link. Have fun creating.
