Making notecards out of damaged books is easy and fun. Unfortunately, damaged and unreadable books can be found almost anywhere - garage sales, library sales, and even used book stores. So, let's go...
Materials:
- damaged book
- paper trimmer or scissors
- self-adhesive photo corners
- blank notecard
Step One:
Once you have your damaged book, slice away desired pages with the exacto knife.
Step Two:
Trim the image to the desired size. I use a Fiskar paper trimmer because it is fast and comes out perfect. My coordinated friends use scissors just fine.
Step Three:
Take the photos corners and put them on all four corners of the image. I find that it works best if you put all four corners around the image before sticking it to the note card.
Step Four:
Press your image with the self-adhesive photo corners onto the card. And you are done. Easy peasy!
Thanks. I will be looking at the library book sales with new eyes.
