Wonderful gift idea for elderly that don't get out much. They can stay in touch with family and the cards are ready for them to select and send. Love it!
I love watching you . you make it so easy to follow along with instructions easy & understand, some expect you already know what's going on or understand and Flys through making your jaw hit the floor and your head spinning 360 degrees, You have no problem with boo boo's at least we all can learned a lesson in what not to do. lol. and you have the great sense of humor it's nice to smile while glueing yourself to your project!! keep on keeping on MAYMAY!
This is lovely May May. I'm going to make one for a friend who wanted to put the cards she received after her mum passed away in something she could have on display. We've been puzzling how to do it for 3 years now-you have provided the solution today!!! Thank you!!!
This is great❣️The perfect way to preserve cards without damaging them. Thank you especially for the clear explanation, as well as your tips and solutions in each step. Extremely helpful and inspiring for endless projects!
MayMay it’s 12:45 pm, going go out now. I ❤️ this it’s adorable want to make one for a Aunty at church she does cards for everyone for birthdays and things that lifts us up smiles
My goodness! Lady, you are GOOD! I love this book and the cover is just so warm and lovely! You are going to make someone very happy with this gift! Thanks for sharing with us.
Judy Garner Thank you so much, I can't tell you how much I am enjoying all the goodies you sent me. Next week I am making a recipe book out of the recipe themed paper you sent. I can't wait to make it! I will film it.
I know I have told you this before, and I'm sure you know, but I want to say thank you for explaining everything as you go along. You not only tell us what to do, but why we are doing it. That explanation makes it so much easier to understand and follow. I, too, have a cinch that was a 'must have' purchase at the time, but I have only used it once. This is a wonderful gift I could make for my friend back home in England. She will love it! Thank you - Julie
This is beautiful. You sure have a great sense of design! Whoever gets this is one lucky girl! She's going To LOVE IT.....thanks again for all the hard work it took to make this video for us......(love the long ones! Lol) have a great day! Smiles! Becca
I used to bind things when I worked at Staples in the Copy Center. So super easy. And not to expensive if you have a Staples nearby. I love this project and now I need to get some mat board! :)
I just made a card keeper too Amy! Only mine is an 8 1/2 x 11 size and I bound mine with my Cinch too. It was fun to make and I am hoping it will keep me organized to getting my cards out in a timely fashion. lol I did learn something new about the Cinch, and that was how you used the center feature. Loved that!
I actually used to have one of these and had kept it in mind, and I was using the G45 Time to Flourish to make an organizer for my bills this year. I guess great minds!! Anyway, this is a amazing gift, I think anyone would love to get one! And I still have time to put some together. Thanks for sharing, Love it...Hugs...Bobbie
I love this! If I made one as it got so full so quickly I think I would forget about the cinch and use big book rings or punch holes and thread ribbon lace etc through so it's adaptable. I would also put a tie of some kind on the opening side to hold it closed. I would make the pockets bigger for each month, more like the cover ones but maybe even deeper. Also christmas needs more pages for family. Lastly, I agree with the same as others, I would add a space to list people's dates on each month page. ☺
OMG! The tutorial on how to make a greeting card organizer was amazing. I really, really love the one you made and I wish I could have the same exact one made for me. I absolutely love it.
I was looking for a thank you gift. This is ideal. I don't have a scoring board, or an exacto knife (sp?), I only have a small cheap paper cutter, but I'm going to try it anyway!! Craft goods are SOOOO expensive in South Africa, we don't have the cheap dollar stores (or Rand stores..) so I'll see what I can do. Thank you for a very good tutorial.
Love, love, love this tutorial. It look like so much fun. It was a great time to relax with coffee and just listen. Thank you for sharing and teaching! Have a great week!
Really pretty - love the harlequin print on the cover! I'll bet all your friends and relatives who watch your videos wonder if they'll be the gift recipient!!
I expanded on this and added a sheet of cardstock with the month as title. Then below the title I added the titles birthday on left and anniversary on right with lines to add names and dates. Then put my cards behind it so I could see the list. I borrowed a cinch, loved it and bought one on eBay as I had to have it to make more projects. It came out great.
Thank you so much for sharing this, MayMay. I am making an Birthday Mini Album & needed a place to keep her Birthday cards inside the Album & this is just what I've been looking for! Yay!
Just got my scrapping room after 5 kids flew the nest (2 left), I been loving watching you, had to make a run to crafts direct to get some supplies, I thought I would let you know I made this with different binding of course, I don't have a fancy machine. BUT I made an opps, hint to others when punching holes for the book make sure you have the paper in the right way...lol three of my pages have the holes on the fold. oh well, its just paper ....right?
This is so good and a great idea for gifts. Made one as you went along. But I changed a couple of things and am going to use 1 1/4" O wire so it can hold cards and close a little more. Will send a picture when all done. Thanks for all you great videos. Merry Christmas to you and yours
I just discovered your channel and fell in love with your cute projects and fun personality but the bonus was when I expanded the info to references materials and saw your address was in Jemison. I live in Alabaster and oddly being so close made me proud for an Alabama girl. Congratulations on a wonderful channel!
Kim Frank Wow! I don't actually live in Jemison but I'm not too far from it. I just use that PO Box. I did graduate from Pelham High School many moons ago!! So at least in football we were rivals!
Maymay, just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy each of your videos! Every time I watch one, I learn some new technique or get some new inspiration! I LOVE my Cinch! I've used mine a lot, but never realized that there was a center mark until now...LOL! How much easier than following the guide on the front for some projects, and especially for the covers when they are 1/4" larger than the pages. I do wish that they made some binders (more than 1 1/4") for them since my books often fan out because I add too many embellishments! Oh, yes, I LOVE the cover of your organizer! It's soooo pretty!
Oh my goodness, I am so glad I found your channel, this book is so nice! I have a bind-it-all that I hardly know how to use and this project looks perfect. Thanks for sharing and inspiring me.
I love this! Now I HAVE TO get a Cinch! Been wanting one for a while now, but seeing how easy it was...I'm sold! I just love your style! Great project! I should make one of these pronto! I'm tired of being the gal who has to sign everything "belated"...lol
I bought the Cinch a while back. I put it on a shelf and it hasnt moved since. I was just sure I would use it. This has inspired me. I am going to get it out, dust it off and see what I can do :)
Amy, another winner!!! I am so in love with this project. I have had my CINCH since they came out, and I think I have only used it one time. I have just been afraid to use it. Not any more!!! I have a card holder, but it is in such shambles from use that it needs to be replaced. I haven't found one, now I know why. These are going to make great gifts and I think I can even sell them online. I'm a widow and because I wasn't married to my husband at the time he retired, I lost his pension and my insurance when he died. I'm always looking for ways I can help supplement my Social Security income and this looks like one that will work for me. Fingers crossed! Thank you for sharing this.
Thank you so much I love it and the tut. on the cinch was awesome I tried mine once and failed now I think I can do it !!! Thanks again I love all you do !!!
Great job on the book. Regards ur Clinch, on the side should be a holder that allows you to put ur binding wires and ur pages 2gether b4 u squish it 2gether.
Hello! Love your videos! And I just love your scripture journal....you have been such an encouragement to me . Can you tell me where you bought the sticky paper from? God Bless!
Hi, i have a couple of questions, where can I purchase a cinch like the one in your video and what size O rings did you use to bind the book? I have a very small binder which is not suitable for this size book. I can’t seem to find one like yours. Thanks . Everything else went well except that thanks to your great instructions.
I just "discovered" your videos, and I have to gush over this project!!!! Fantastic! And I am definitely going to do some for my family and friends. I have a question, tho: where do you get your double-sided tapes? Also, do you have a full materials list on any of the sites that you list below this video? Thanks again for sharing your talent with us. Hugs, cat
I'm new to your channel and I have to tell you that I love your tubes, you explain things so well thank you....I want to make this card organizer so I went online to hobby lobby and can't for the life of me find the mat board, do you sell it in your store? I really want some!
I love it! You did a awesome job, with showing us and made it look so easy, thanks. If I can ask not related to the book, were did you get your extra long glue sticks at, never seen those and would love to get some..tfs. Tonya
Hi May May! I love this project!! I just had 2 quick questions. Did you close/adhere the right side of the page pockets down...or did you keep it open? I know the left side is closed with the cinch...but was curious about the opposite side, since those pockets didn't have flaps like the covers. Also...what size O-wire did you use for your book?? Thanks so very much!! TFS! Xo
Xo Irish Xo I did not adhere them closed, they stay shut just because of the fold. My O-wires closed perfectly with the 7/8 inch setting, I am not sure of the size because I took off the package. I won't do that again, you need to know the sizes!
I noted this video is 5 years old, but your projects are timeless ... good today as 5 years ago!! I would love this as a gift 👍😌.
I haven't commented much, but I really like this project. All your projects are awesome, this one is one step more.
Wonderful gift idea for elderly that don't get out much. They can stay in touch with family and the cards are ready for them to select and send. Love it!
I think I like the folder better. So cool! Thanks for sharing.
I love watching you . you make it so easy to follow along with instructions easy & understand, some expect you already know what's going on or understand and Flys through making your jaw hit the floor and your head spinning 360 degrees, You have no problem with boo boo's at least we all can learned a lesson in what not to do. lol. and you have the great sense of humor it's nice to smile while glueing yourself to your project!! keep on keeping on MAYMAY!
That books would good as a recipe journal as well. So much you can do with that book.

These are great gifts I used to make them for craft fairs as well. Good seller.
If you don't mind, would you tell me what you priced them for???
I know I have told you this before, and I'm sure you know, but I want to say thank you for explaining everything as you go along. You not only tell us what to do, but why we are doing it. That explanation makes it so much easier to understand and follow.

Maymay, you are awesome! I'm making this for my cousin. She sends cards to all the family for every occasion. Blessings to you
Thanks Maymay...you are a natural teacher! I learned so much.
Gorgeous, love it. You are awesome. TFS. GOD BLESS YOU. BE SAFE AND TAKE CARE OF ONE ANOTHER.
This card organizer is just stunning!

+Purple Pixie that is the beauty of crafting, you can change the projects to fit your needs. Have a great time crafting!
Maymay Made It Crafts that's so true. I love your clean fun style xx
I love how you explain everything step by step and make it so easy to understand! This craft is so cute!
Fantastic. You make it look so easy. I’m going to give it a try. Thank you for your great tutorial. Stay safe.
As always, an outstanding tutorial. You never fail to amaze with that sharp mind of yours. Thank you so much, MayMay x
OMG! The tutorial on how to make a greeting card organizer was amazing. I really, really love the one you made and I wish I could have the same exact one made for me. I absolutely love it.

Absolutely fantastic idea. Thank you MayMay for your guidance.
Great project! I’m going to add a note paper to top saying month and names for birthdays for each month!
Really pretty - love the harlequin print on the cover! I'll bet all your friends and relatives who watch your videos wonder if they'll be the gift recipient!!
sadiejosiemom It is going to a dirty santa party today, we will see how it goes!
What a lovely project to give as gifts
I love this project! Very simple and easy to make for oneself or as a gift. Thanks for sharing!
I expanded on this and added a sheet of cardstock with the month as title. Then below the title I added the titles birthday on left and anniversary on right with lines to add names and dates.

This is absolutely beautiful!!!!
Thank you for this tutorial! I will be using this idea for making Christmas Greeting Holders. This way I can store my greeting cards by year.
What a great gift idea. I can't wait to make this.
I just love your videos! I am new to card making and you are an awesome teacher!
Just got my scrapping room after 5 kids flew the nest (2 left), I been loving watching you, had to make a run to crafts direct to get some supplies, I thought I would let you know I made this with different binding of course, I don't have a fancy machine.

Love your card holder, so clever. Maz Australia
This is awesome! I made one before without the binding and using chipboard, but this one is so much better! Thank you for sharing! 😁
I wonder what you can use if you don't have a cinch. Would office depot do it? Does a hole puncher punch through mat board?
Thank you so much for this! I was able to complete most of it within an hour! Very easy to do and rewarding. Now have to go bind it!!
awesome love your book! and way to go using the old stuff Judy sent you, I may get mine out! I loved what you did with all of it!
I love it!! And being a card maker I can sure use one like it!! Thanks for sharing, Amy!
Simply gorgeous! Great job Maymay.
This is so good and a great idea for gifts. Made one as you went along. But I changed a couple of things and am going to use 1 1/4" O wire so it can hold cards and close a little more. Will send a picture when all done. Thanks for all you great videos. Merry Christmas to you and yours
Easy is right! Love it. So many ideas!!!
Great project, What a wonderful way to keep up on getting your cards out on time. Love the Graphic 45 paper. Love how you did the cover.
