Bound Birth Cards




I  used Dee's card binding tutorial to bind up Millas birth cards - they had been sitting in a pile collecting dust and I was at a loss of what to do with them. When Dee posted the tutorial on her blog I bookmarked it and KNEW that I had to follow it. Brilliant! One rainy afternoon last week I was cleaning up my bookmarks (*sigh* no Pinterest for me) and came across it again. I immediately set about doing it and I'm SO glad I did. 

Although I have to admit it was a very rushed non thought out project. I really did just slap the cover on and as a result its a bit bubbly and I didn't have enough fancy letters to spell out her full name *sigh

I'm definitely going to make another of these with all of our wedding and engagement cards. Lucky too, because I was getting a bit sick of them but am far too sentimental to throw them out.

Now Millas birth cards are in our bookshelf all neat and tidy like. EEee. Big thanks to you Dee!

What do you do with your cards? Any other cool ideas? Leave a comment and let me know!

  2. I might have to do that too. Even though my kids are 11, 9 and 6, I still have their cards sitting in a box. At least this will ensure they will have them to keep.
