1. The junior legal size note pads will need
to be cut down to 4 ½ by 7 ¼ inches. If you don’t have a paper cutter that will
do this, the office stores do this for you for a small fee.
2. Leave the notebook loose instead of
adhering it to the case so the user could remove it for easier writing and to
replace when the tablet is gone. The notebook topper is 4.5" x
2" and can be secured with sticky strip. This can be embellished with a
die cut strip or ribbon if you like.
3. Before placing the 10 5/8 by 7-inch dsp
inside the case, consider the pattern on your paper to determine if you’d like
ribbon, die cut or some other embellishments on the cover. Adhere those then
simply slide in the case.
4. To make a pocket to hold receipts etc.
cut a coordinating pieces of dsp 8 1/2" x 3. Fold it in thirds and
secure it in the back and on the bottom with Sticky Strip. Use a circle or
oval punch on the front edge in the center so you can reach inside the envelope
more easily. Depending on the designer paper you select you may want
to embellish this pocket with a die cut or ribbon before adhering it to the
inside of the case.
5. An RSVP pen can be included
Hand-Made Sponge Tools
After seeing how ChickandScratch cut and labeled her sponges with the round tab punch, I knew I had to do it! I made a box to keep them in as well. Here is the video showing how it's done: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tzaXkfYx1mI
