Mini Magazine Notes Tutorial

This is how it should look all folded up. (yes, you're seeing an extra score line on the side but don't look at it, it will be covered up next!) Place Sticky Strip on all sides that will be connected to something. Adhesive it down tight.
I added Designer Series Paper 10" x 1 1/4 to the center section around the bottom. That size leaves you a 1/8" margin on the top and bottom. I added a piece of Sticky Strip all around and a ribbon. The 'notes' was done on the computer andpunched with the Word Window. It is about 1 1/8" long mounted on colored cardstock. I added Earth Elements Brads and attached the little label with Mini Glue Dots.
Finished project. It is about 4" x 3 1/4" x 1 1/2". Perfect for 3x3 note cards and envelopes. Enjoy the tutorial! Send me a picture of the Mini Magazine Note Holders you do!

I am working on another one for regular size cards next!

Adorable! I would love to know when you come up with the dimensions for a regular card size. I think it would be fun to make them for holding Christmas cards received using the beautiful SU papers. Great job! Please let me know! pamdurso@sbcglobal.net
