I turned this one into a watercolor journal. The names are written on the back and I wanted to be able to see them so it took me a long time to decide what to do. I had windows and hinges and binding materials, eyelets and papers, chipboard all out when it hit me to go simple.......
cut a chipboard piece the same size for the back, cover it with some TH wildflower paper, cut the inside papers down to fit, punch the holes with a cropodile, and bind with rings.
I also gave the entire cabinet card and back a complete coat of Glue and Seal to protect everything.
It's ready to use....... over and over again, thanks to the rings.
this is the inside back - but it could also be a front cover. |
A little plug......
