Notepad of Money

I wanted to find a creative way of gifting money for a Christmas gift to our son.  I searched on Pinterest and found this idea.
Products used
  • Brand new $1 bills (50)
  • Notepad Compound (Amazon link)
  • Bind-it-All book measures 7" x 3"
  • Stampin' Up! Products
    • Holiday Lounge Designer Series Paper
    • Sahara Sand cardstock
    • Whisper White cardstock
    • Great Greetings and Holiday Keepsake Ornament stamp sets
    • Ruby Red ink
    • Corner Rounder, Ornament and Scallop Tag Topper hand punches
    • Basic Pearls
    • Silver Bakers Twine
    • Glue Dots
  • Miniature Tree Trimming wire

Helpful Hints
  1. I tried to get new five, ten and twenty dollar bills but my bank only carried ones.
  2. I found the best twenties I had and stuck them between the one dollar bills.  The glue didn't "grab" them so I removed the twenties. (sorry David)
  3. The less often you touch the bills, the better.
  4. Add a backing cardboard to the bottom of the stack of bills (6 1/8" x 2 5/8").  This is what you attach to the book.
  5. Use binder clips, place them close to the edge you are gluing.  I placed cardboard shims to protect the money from being damaged by the clips.
  6. Apply thin layers of glue, allowing to dry completely each layer.  I made approximately twelve layers of glue.

      It took me FOREVER (hours and hours) to create a template for the sections.  I finally threw out my tutorial on cutting each individual section and created a template that can be used over and over. The easiest way to create section templates is to follow the tutorial below.  Cut your template out of heavy cardstock or window sheet.  Cut your pattern paper to 3 1/4" and place template on top and trace diagonal line and cut.

      The FREE tutorial can be found HERE.

      Please note, if you use a edge border punch, you will have to trim to fit each section.
