Personal Library Checkout & Bookmark/Reminder

I love sharing  books with friends.  It gets pretty bad when I can’t remember who I loaned it to.  The bottom half is detachable and is a bookmark for the borrower.  The top half reminds me who has the book. 

Altered Clipboard and Journal

Usually I decoupage paper to the back of the clipboard. This time I stamped and used embossing powder.  I would think this is way more durable than the paper.  It would probably be even better to paint and then stamp/emboss. 

Journals

Made from some leftover paper. 

 

 

Made by the brilliant Laurie B. for women’s retreat.  She is a craftswoman. 

 

 

More leftover parts.

TurboTax Receipt Keeper

 

There’s envelope for each month.  Keep the receipts you’ll need to do your taxes!

DIY planner

I made this planner to be the size of a business envelope.  I really love spaces to make lists.  I need the lists more than I need the calendar.  It had a list for meal planning, shopping, school activities, computer to-do, house to-do.  The envelope is handy for tucking in reminder slips, receipts, the odd postage stamp. 

The only downside was bulkiness.  It didn’t fit in my purse. 

Gift Planning Notebook

I always try to mentally note gift ideas for people when I’m shopping or if they happen to say something in conversation.  I never remember until after the gift-giving occasion. 

Here’s a little note book which lists the Gift Recipient, the due date (birthday, christmas, anniversary, etc), estimated budget, ideas, and the final decision.  I always worry that I’ll give a repeat gift. 

Scrabble Journals

It would be charming to glue some scrabble tiles to the cover. 

Gift card notepads galore!

 

So much fun!  Thanks to everyone who has saved their gift cards and hotel keys!

Paint chip notepads

Brie Box & Thank you book

 

The upcycled round box used to house a round of President’s Brie. 

The round book is a little memory/thank you book for the Sally – the retiring school administrator.

Diskette Notebook and CD holder

Found these while at Mom & Dad's Museum of the Past (their house).  I don't think anyone in the immediate family even has a computer that can take a 5.25" floppy disk. 

The disk envelope is incorporated inside as a pocket.

This one is a CD holder (oh the irony!) made from CD sleeves.

I am relieved that the younger cousins can identify that they're floppy disks!

Computer Password Books

Yes, I know you're never supposed to write all your passwords down and leave it in a conspicuous place.  But really now, we all do, right?  This is a way to keep it all organized.  The back section contains ruled pages for other random notes.
