Tuck it away...

file it under... fun!
:: file folder pocketbook ::
on your mark, get ready, let's go...
fold it, cut it, paint it... now I am getting excited!
four little pockets to nestle my tags...
 
trimmed with pretty tape, this makes me smile...
some days it just feels good to play!
Be Happy. Make Art.

      So glad you to read, you enjoy my mini- file folder booklet.
      Fun to create... now, I can house my tags.
      The great thing about this project is, you can create several as signatures then apply the same book binding techniques...

  10. Hi Karenann! :]
    Yes, I will be hosting a ::LIVE:: event on how to take these and bind them together cardboard book cover.
    I am working on the signatures, as time permits.
    The file folders are thicker... this does create a challenge, but I am working on it. Wish me luck...!!
    I will show the completed book.
