My husband (my biggest enabler) brought home this old computer disc holder because he thought I could use it for something. I think they were called floppy discs? Well, whatever they were called doesn't matter. The important thing to know is that it's the perfect size for our calling cards.
I used solid cardstock squares cut an inch bigger than the calling cards. I then used my label maker to add the Circlets name on the top for easy alphabetizing. The calling card is attached to the cardstock and on the back I wrote the event where we met.
To dress it up a little I added some vinyl that was cut from the Cricut Everyday cartridge. The green Circle head was cut at 3" from page 21. The Proud Cricut Circle Member was cut at 2" and was also from page 21. That's it. Easy peasy.
My calling cards now sit very proudly on my desk where I can look through them and remember the fun we had. I hope you like todays project and that it gives you inspiration to find something old and make it new again.
I proud of my self to search calling card organization. Such a pretty card and super way you described it.

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness. I just saw this and have one of those exact same disc holders ready to be thrown out.. I just pulled it out of the trash and moved all my calling cards to this. I'm not nearly as organized but it's in one place. Love the idea. Thanks,
