We have about a month left until the kids head back to school so, we thought it would be fun to jazz up some binders. There’s no better way to do that than with the Minc. You know what I’m saying? If you don’t have a Minc, don’t fret! They look super cute in black and white!
Supplies:
- Downloads: I Think I Can HERE and Be Silly HERE
- binder
- 12 x 12 patterned scrapbook paper
- card stock to back your quote
- glue dots
- Minc and your foil color of choice
You can easily slide the printable into the binder and call it done or you can have a bit more fun. If you plan to foil your printable, cut your foil large enough to cover the wording and place it shiny side up. Put it inside the plastic sleeve and send it through the Minc. We then cut this 10 x 8 1/4″ and used a piece of black card stock (cut to 10 3/8 x 8 1/2″) to back it with. We took the 12 x 12 patterned paper and cut it down to 10 x 11 1/8 and slid it into the binder sleeve. Then, we slid the others right in the middle of the patterned paper. That’s it!
We thought they also looked cute clipped on a clipboard! (Which would make the perfect gift to give to your new teacher!)
Hopefully the kids look at the words each day and know that whatever comes their way, they can do it! And the most important thing…..to “Be silly. Be honest. Be kind.”
