Mother’s Day Note Pads
Do you end up with an abundance of cards every couple of months (especially after holidays and birthdays)? Not sure what to do with them but know that you want to keep them?
Cathy from Cathy Thinking Out Loud uses a very creative way to reuse those cards – by turning them in to note pads! Pretty neat right? Perfect solution for creating unique gifts, keeping the kids entertained at home and so much more!
You Will Need
- cards that you would like to turn into a note pad (can be a birthday, thank you, greetings, etc..)
- stapler
- blank paper (or scrap paper you can reuse)
Directions
1. Cut the card along the folded line (to make a front and back cover).
2. Cut the blank paper so that it will fit in between the front and back cover.
3. Staple the note pad together. If you are really creative you can put holes into the note pad and tie off with a ribbon.
Great way to use up that "expired" but adorable cards. Thanks for sharing.<br /><br />Besos, Sarah<br />Blogger at Journeys of The Zoo
Isn't it fantastic? And such an extra special keepsake for afterwards too 🙂
I love the cards you picked to make the notepads! I hope the kids had fun (and now a little treat for Mom on Mother's Day Carla
They were some of my favourite cards (they pop up too!). They had a lot of fun (and coloured the inside in already! – no surprise there!)
