Make Your Own Tri-Fold Frame!

Good morning Zutter friends, 

Pinky here today to share how to make your very own tri-fold frame from scratch

using your incredibly versatile Zutter Bind-It-All and Owires!

 Step 1. Trim out 4.5X6" chipboard. 3 pieces. 

 Step 2. Cover each piece (front and back) using patterned paper.

 Step 3. Using Bind-It-All- punch center binding holes on one side of each frame page.

(Use Cover Page setting).

 Step 4. Take middle frame page and punch out other side.

 This is what your frame pages will look like. 

 Step 5. Embellish and decorate pages. (or add photos)

 Step 6. Using 1/2"Antique Brass Owires & Zutter Bind-It-All machine- 

bind frame according to manufacturer directions.

 Stand your frame up and enjoy! Perfect to commemorate any occasion

or that work desktop. Easy, and totally fun. 

A coloring book for Edward

Hello everyone. Nicole here. Lately, it seems like all Edward wants to do is sit on my lap so that he can demand me to draw pictures of cars, turtles, mommy and daddy. The list goes on :) I actually love this. I think that I might have a little artist, so I'm doing everything that I can to encourage him to find his creative side.

Since my son loves to draw, I decided to create him a fun coloring book using my Bind-it-All and Clipboards. This was such a quick and easy project and Edward loves it! Go ahead and try creating one of your own. I bet your kids will love it too!

My Favorite Recipes

Hi everyone, Nancy Keslin here today to share with you a project I made using my Zutter Bind-it-All, some cute Melissa Frances supplies and my Zutter Display-it-All.


I was so thrilled when I ran across this cute little kit at the Scrapbook Expo, covers and insert pages for a fun, kitschy, recipe album.  I knew it would match my kitchen and with a little help from my Bind-it-All I made a simple book to hold some of my families favorite recipes.

White 1-inch O-wires hold my little book together.  And bits of lace, trim, sequins, (from the Hydrangea Hippo store) and a few Prima flowers, as well as a bit of stickles, complete the covers that I rounded with my Zutter Round-it-All.

I painted my Display-it-All with an off white crackle finish so that it would coordinate with my kitchen, adding more flowers and a cute little doll tea pot I had from my daughter's younger days to embellish the base.

I really love how the Display-it-All keeps my recipes within easy eye site and up off my prep surface.

Now all I need to do is get in there and cook.

Thanks for stopping by the Bind-it-All blog today and be sure and come back soon.
