Hello Gang... Hope you all had a wonderful day!
I just finished putting the screws on this little project. As promised a tutorial for a fast little project that I call a Flip Top Mini...Mini! This little guy will hold more than you think! It's fun to do, fast and uses a lot of your left over scrap materials! It has a ton of possibilites. Hope you give it a try....It also looks good turned upside down with the top as the base...You decide....
You can Download Flip Top Mini Mini here. (.PDF format)
Thanks For Looking!

Jim, you continue to amaze me with your talent and generosity. I think this would make a great "life's lessons" gift for my nephew. I am going to have all of his female relatives give him a "life lesson" to help him with his upcoming marriage. Thanks!

Hey Jim...I made something similar to this to house my embossing folders....instead of envelopes I used cardstock with the impression of each folder embossed on the pages making it easy to see at a glance what each folder contained and also used metal hinges instead of paper ones as I wasn't sure if the paper ones would hold up from constant use....however, never thought of making a mini into it which is a great idea and yours would be so much faster to make....thanks again for your creativity!

Haven't been here in a while, cannot wait to look around. Great stuff!

Beautiful Jim! Looks like a project that would be fun to make..am wondering if i could be adapted to hold small glassine envelopes, about 30 of them, to hold punched-out chipboard letters. Could use coin envys and write the letter on it, of course. But you can see through the glassine.
Also, I am loving the way your cutter slices easily trough chipboard; where does one get it? Who carries it?

Jim, This is so super great. I just love your work. Between you and Laura and Kathy I can't get enough. Glad you are feeling better too. Can't wait to see what you have done for G45 also. Remember to take it easy yet.
