So much fun to make, thanks for your note!

Great direction, I would use a paper inside which is more like home made paper or something with texture for a quality little pad. Love the look of a striker strip. 🇨🇦

Wait until you see the video I made of making a Christmas wreath for a cemetery. I think I lost my mind and hope Rich can edit out some of the crazy things I said. My cousin Shelli and her friend came to craft, and we turned her friend into a human bow jig and yes, I put it on camera. It was so funny and she was such a great sport. My bow jig just wasn't big enough to make the size bow we needed for the wreaths, so we had her hold out her arms (and of course we use glitter covered ribbon)....the glitter was flying everywhere and she was covered in it from head to toe...It was so much fun and she made two really awesome bows. Who knew a human bow jig was the way to go?

Another way I learned to make these was to do a double fold on the staple end so that you can hide the staple inside the card. Easier to show than explain ...:)

Crafting For Almost EveryoneIi'm in south Louisiana, and you know I think I have that stamp. Unfortunately I have not been able to find my Halloween stamps. I moved out of my house and back into my house last year because of the flood and I still haven't unpacked everything. I did just find my Christmas cards I had started before the flood - at least I'm a step ahead of that :-). Thanks for the info. I really enjoy your channel!

I think that's funny, because it happens to me all the time. I started buying the really hard sided suitcases and probably show one in my craft room tour. They hold a ton and stack standing on top of each other. I write Christmas or Halloween on it and that helps me stay organized for holidays. The rest of the year, they are stacked in the back of a closet. Everything else is subject to a "Search and Destroy" kind of mentality, as I lose more things than I find...especially crafty items I need to return...So frustrating, so I know what you mean. Rich just gave up his closet and ripped out the closet organizer to put in a closet downstairs for his work clothes (since he's retired now.) All that needs done now, is to fill the holes and paint the closet and I'm so excited, as it will give me a lot more room to organize. I could probably fill it with my stamp collections alone (how embarassing to admit that!) So glad the weather this year hasn't hit your area, you've been through enough. Sandy

I forgot to mention that the suitcases are the old ones from maybe the 1960's and most people can't get rid of them at garage sales/thrift stores, so I pay usually $1-2 for them (and considering the amount they hold, that's a great deal for storage...)

Thanks for sharing this. I can't wait to make these for Christmas to stick in as little stocking stuffers for friends.

Lynn, The papers that Joanns sell are just a little too big for it, but I really liked how each sheet has twelve on it, so for me, it was only 20 cents a sheet on sale and if you're from the US, you can't throw a stone without hitting Joanns, haha. I'd love it if you would share a photo of yours on my facebook page, crafting for almost everyone, so others can see what you've come up with. I could have put 3-d embellishments on it, but wanted to stick with what a matchbook really looks like (and the washi tape really made it look like the striker bar) and I got rid of some of my hoards of washi....So glad you liked it.

Irmi, I think about you and the sunflower card all the time. My friend that I am doing the collaboration with has been ill off and on for the past six months and she is going to do sign language for her part for the hearing impaired. If I didn't tell you before, that particular video is to let the hearing impaired know that I always write everything out step by step in the info below box, so if you can't follow the closed captioning, that can be kind of unusual, they can read the notes instead. So eventually that video will go live, but in the mean time, I have a house mouse stamp where he is laying in the center of a huge sunflower and I'm going to make a card and send it to you. It's the least I can do after you've been so patient. I don't have your address written down, so if you would email it to me at saundralparker@yahoo.com, I'll make sure to send it to you. (The other video card is ok, but I really want you to have something that I've done a lot of work on, as you deserve something nice. ) I know you haven't minded, but I feel terrible and it's really weighed on me since I told you I would do it and the video hasn't gone live. Rich is backed up with probably ten videos, but i'll make sure I push yours closer to the front of the line. You've been such a great supporter of my channel and I just wanted to thank you...Sandy

There's a stamp show in Akron Ohio, which is too far for you and 2 hours for me, but I'm hoping if I put out the word about it, that maybe I'll run into some people there. It would be so much fun to go to a stamp show with other crafters as poor Rich is my "crafty buddy" and one stamp show we attended, there was a man selling tickets and he told Rich his ticket was free because any man that would subject themselves to that for a day, deserved it. Rich is always a great sport at those...If you have a stamp show near you, they are so much fun...Love all the new shiny things, haha Sandy

I have to be honest, I followed another KZreadrs directions, and so I assumed they must tear out easily, but honestly, it never occurred to me to try it. I gave all of mine to my girlfriend for her craft fair, so I hope they did tear out easily, but I'm not really sure. I think most people use them as a continuous note pad to themselves, as it only has 20 sheets of paper in it. Sorry I can't give you more info...Sandy

If you're asking about the individual sheet that I cut each of the small boxes from, I don't know if it has a name. You almost always can find it in the single sheets of papers in Joanns in racks, depending on the time of year, they usually have it for upcoming holidays. Also, most 12 x 12 pads will have one or two pages that are similar, but much thicker paper than you find in the open stock that would be in your stores. Sorry I can't be of more help than that...I did try finding it at Joann.com, but couldn't figure out what to type in to narrow the search...sorry....Sandy
