Well, it is my new favorite toy! I saw a lady use the zutter on a scrapbook video and decided that I must have one. I immediately thought of all the cool things I could make and we could even use it for an enrichment activity. That last thought helped me justify the purchase. The zutter is a binding machine.
I found out that only one store carried the machine in Utah county and so I turned to Ebay to find a cheaper cost. After being outbid several times, I am now the proud owner of a Zutter and made my first project! I love how it turned out and it was so easy to use! Well, except that I put the covers on backwards the first time. I know that doesn't surprise some of you.
This is a journal that I made. We had a RS lesson a few weeks ago on Elder Eyring's October conference address, where he spoke about writing down what the Lord has done for us each day. That is what inspired me to make this journal. I had papers already with the lines so, I cut them down to an 8"x 8" size. I used chipboard for the covers and covered them with cute paper and painted the edges brown. I printed my title on the paper prior to gluing it on. Then I bound it all together. I then unbound it becuase I had the covers on backwards and rebound it.
