License Plate Mini Album Tutorial

Wow 2010 already. I've just arrived home after a month long holiday and itching to scrap something.
Here is a mini album to make a mini book with license plates. They use a bind it all machine so you will need to have access to one. If you don't you can maybe use some sort of power tool. You will also need some wire cutters, the wire coil and a piece of chipboard for the back cover, cardstock for your pages and of course some license plates.
You can use any old license plates or you can pick some up from your scrapbook store.

Make candy cane holder cards for your childs classmates

My dd is finishing her first year of school next week and already she has received 15 or so candy canes and Christmas cards from her classmates.
I haven't yet gotten around to organising the Christmas cards yet so this arvo akw and I will be furiously making our cards . I have lots of left over scrapbook christmas papers and some stamped, embossed and cut out baubles and trees from a few years back that will make the job a little easier....I hope.
I want to make the card a holder so that i can slip the candy cane inside it somehow. I have hunted around for a few ideas and this is what i've found for inspiration so far.
