43 Comments 

This being National Craft Month I have a fun giveaway package for you, and yup parts of it are recycled! It includes a kit to make a recycled postcard stitched book by Jeanine Stein author of Re-Bound and the soon to be released Adventures In Bookbinding, a MakeReady Journal and a pack of the absolute cutest brads from the Eyelet Outlet along with their Postcard kit!

Just leave a comment in today’s post by Midnight Pacific time Thursday March 17th (Yes St. Patrick’s Day) and you are in the running. Want to make the stitch postcard book now and have a stash of postcards to work with? Well pop on over to Craftside for the full recycled postcard stitched book tutorial.

    Wow! I have so many postcards from my travels that this would be really helpful to help me turn a big o’ box of cards that never get seen into a useful project.

    Thanks for the opportunity! :)
