Here is a memo pad that I made using only chipboard, paper and my bind it all.  I made it the same way I have my other pads.  I cut the chipboard to be larger then my memo pad that I was using.  Cut the paper to match the sides to the front and back.  Adhere with my Xyron machine.   Used the glue glider pro to adhere the memo pad and finished it off with my bind it all, ribbon and a sticker.

I have received lots and lots of questions regarding the Bind It All.  I love, love, love my BIA and I decided that I am going to give one away.  Because it is an expensive craft tool I wanted to make sure that it goes true cricut crafter so I am holding a contest.  The first place grand prize will be the Bind It All  (pink v2.0) plus 1 package of O rings.  The second and third place winners will receive 5 12×24 (colors of my choice) sheets of Oracal Exhibition 631 Vinyl. It is the exact same vinyl that Provocraft sells.

Not sure what the Bind It All is.  Check out these videos, these are actual chapters from the DVD that comes with the BIA.

I finished this word book the other day.  I was able to get the individual svg and scut files saved today.  They are included in the zip file below.

I have been waiting patiently (not!) by the mailbox for my Hannah Montana cricut cartridge to arrive and it has not arrived yet.  I played around with Design Studio this morning and came up with a PARTY word book.  I can’t wait to cut it.

The file is good to go, You probably would want to highlight the middle of the PAR letters and hide the contour on each.  I  included a reminder text file in the zip file.  The rectangle of the book was created with the Plantin School cartridge.  If you don’t have that cartridge, you can change the rectangle out for another rectangle on a different cartridge.  Click on the word videos under tag section on the right for a demonstration on how to do this.

I love to make word books to cut on my cricut.  I tend to make only the ones that I need or think I will need in the future.  I am taking suggestions right now on wordbook designs.  Please answer the following questions.  You may submit as many different word book suggestions as you would like.  I can’t guarantee that I will make every book but it will give me a starting point and I will compile a list.
