Valentine Coupon Book Video

Hello there!! Welcome to Mrs. Lincoln's Inkin'!!  Today is a special bonus video day!! YAY!!! I wanted to share this idea with you in case you needed a cute last minute Valentines Day idea!  I call it my Valentines Day Coupon Book!  Do you ever find things laying around the house that you know you could be able to use but just don't know how?  I do that all the time.  This project is a perfect example! Envelopes!!!! We all have that stash of envelopes, it seems, where we have lost whatever was originally suppose to be put in them, or they are extras from a previous project... so what to do with them?  Well, here is an idea...

Simple enough right? And what a cute idea!!

This coupon book happens to measure at 4 1/4" x 8 1/4".  For the front of my Coupon Book, i used a piece of Real Red cut at 4 1/2" x 5" then scored it at 1/2" on three sides.  The piece of Whisper White that fits inside is cut at 3" x 5 1/4".

To decorate the inside i used two pieces of Real Red with some awesome DSP from the Candlelight Christmas set. Who says you can only use Christmas DSP at Christmas time?  The measurements for the inside flaps are 3 1/4" x 7 3/4".  The "coupons" themselves are measured at 4" x 7 3/4".

I just think that this is an adorable way to give someone something that they can use for many days/weeks to come.  Just imagine the kinds of coupons that you could make....!! The possibilities are endless!! Well, i hope you enjoyed today's bonus video! Until next time...
