For this binding card, I used standard A2 size and scored the middle and another 3/4" in from the middle to use as a binding for the card. I inserted a white piece of paper for the writing inside since the inside of the DP paper was brown. I punched two holes all the way through and added those 2 brown brads...and did all this in the car on my way to Dallas. Twins to be born on Monday!

You are multi-talented on the move! You must have been on VERY smooth highways...everything is perfect on this lovely vintage card in soft tones. Lovely bird theme. Your "binding" detail is beautiful. Congratulations on the new additions-to-be for your family.

You must have packed well my friend. You are pulling off some pretty great cards for just whatever you took with you.
Love the way you've colored and shaded this image.
