My 1st Zutter Bind It All Word Book

joyslife logo

I heart the Bind It All!!  I took a few practice runs on plain paper just punching holes and lining them up and then I just went for it!  So fun!!  So, this was my first attempt at making a “word book” – one of the hot trends in crafting.

I only wish I hadn’t tried to make the letter pages with so many layers of poster board.  I had some chipboard, but had heard some people used poster board, so I tried that.  It’s too thin for my liking.  I kept adding layers to it until I was happy and it took forever.

I used my Cricut Expression along with the trial version of Design Studio by Provo Craft to create the files that enabled me to print the ALLEY letters out as a piece of the page. I now have the full version of DS, but at the time I was waiting for it to be delivered.  Pretty cool trial version!

I created this for one of DD’s friends, for her b’day.  It’s basically just a journal/notebook.  Blank pages are separated by the letter pages.  The back and front of each letter page is decorated differently.  So cute!!  I used the DCWV Sweet Stack cardstock.  Love that stack!
