How do I make a matchbook?

[cheermom]

Is there an easy way to make these? I want to try.

Thanks, sherri

I've never made my own, but try this site. A box of 50 is $12.50. They also have cute accessory stamps that go with them.

If you have any real matchbooks, take a look at it--then you'll know exactly how to make one and can do so in any size you wish, just using it as a guide!

You can also do an "advanced search" here at SCS--just look up in the dark blue bar, and under "Welcome, ___" there's a "SEARCH" button.

Go for advanced search, input what you are searching for, i.e. "matchbook", and select where you wish to search, if you suspect it'll turn up in a particular forum, like "techniques", etc.

You can find virtually anything that way here at SCS, if it is indeed here.

Otherwise, try a "google", and I'm sure all kinds of links will turn up with detailed instructions, etc.

Hi there. Are you talking the matchbooks that hold post-it notes? If so, I just did a demo with them and the dimensions were as follows:
Cut cardstock 8 1/2" x 3 1/4". Score at 1 1/4", 5" and 5 1/4". Fold the small end up and staple near the bottom. Insert post-its and then fold over at the other score marks. It is so cute. I made another square of cardstock to go over the top and it finished it off very nice. I hope this is what you meant. If not, sorry! :cool:
