Foam Coupon Binder

I have decided, again, to change my coupon binders.  I do this every so often due to losing the binder or it no longer fitting my current needs.  Today's coupon binder is made of foam.  It has Brads to hold the Coupon inserts down, a sleeve for "This trip's coupons," a brad to hold a list of your current coupons (or you can get the lady savings app which tells you what coupons are in what insert), a ladybug rolling knife that I got from Michael's several years ago, and a piece of extra card board to separate the pages.  This is a cut as you go binder, you put the whole insert in and then only cut the coupons out when you need them.  Then you put them in the pocket in the front and at the end of your trip scan them in.  Once your done you can cross the coupon off your list with a pen. 

Materials:
1 Large Sheet of Foam
1 Small Piece of Foam
4 Brads
Ribbon / Glitter Glue / Embellishments
Glue Gun
Scissor
Hole Punch
Cutting Knife
Ribbon
Card Stock (I used the flap of a coke box)
Coupon Inserts

Step 1: Make the Basic Shape

Make sure the large foam board is big enough to fit the insert opened up.  Fold the Foam in half and cut three holes (even to where your hole punch makes holes).  Put a brad into each hole so that the "legs" are in the inside.  Fold them down for now.

Thanks! If I had a voice I would have made a mini video but at this point nothing comes out.

Would you know how to add text to the video? That might be an option. If the picture quality is better on the video I would make it so people can see you remove a coupon, see the folder and the embellishments. It will improve the ible in my opinion. Just a thought.

I know how to if I had my Mac but it is out fir repair. That movie sounds similar to the sign I winder if they are the same people. Congrats to your kids on their game. Game programming is a whole layer of difficulty I never got into.
