I've never been one to throw greeting cards away...I am pretty
sure I still have birthday cards from when I was ten. As I have grown up I have
been better about throwing them away; but I still hoard a few here and there. I
knew I wouldn't be able to throw away the cards from our wedding so I did what
I always do and looked on Pinterest for a solution. I found an image on
Pinterest that took me to a blog; but the link did not take me to the actual
tutorial of the card book; but it wasn't that hard to figure out how it was
done.
I bought chipboard (I think that is what it is called),
embellishments, a hole punch, and the book rings. Then I divided the cards by
size:
I found the largest card and used that one to determine how big to
cut the front and back covers.
Then I decorated
the front and used the hole punch to punch holes in the covers.
Then I punched
holes in the cards and put it all together. This is definitely a project that I
will finish in parts because using that hole punch started to hurt my hands. I
only punched holes in about 15 cards before I had to give up.
I think it turned out very well. I am really excited that I found
something to do with the wedding cards. There are so many well wishes in the
cards that I would not want to toss out. This will be another awesome keepsake
from our wedding.
What about you...what did you do with all the wedding cards from
your wedding?
