DIY Card "Book"

I'm the kind of person who doesn't like to throw away all the cards I get, whether it's from a birthday or a holiday or whatever. Especially when they have a joke or a meaningful message inside. But it gets kind of difficult to keep them organized [ more so if you like to keep them by date / year like me]. I've come up with a way to keep them nice and organized without them sliding all over the place when you pick them up. It's called a card "book".

What you need is:

  • birthday / Christmas / all the cards you wish to keep
  • hole punch
  • book rings [ I purchased mine from Walmart for $2 ]

The big black square thing is a hole punch in case you were wondering - it's an oldie.

There's not much to explain but, all you need to do is punch one or two holes in your cards, you can keep the envelopes in the book as well or reuse them if nothing is written on them. 

I punched two holes in my regular sized cards and one hole in the smaller cards.



I'm just starting off with a few cards, but with the pack of book rings there are small, medium and large rings so I can always expand my book as I add more cards.

Keep the memories alive.
