I’m so excited Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L and Fancy Pants are teaming up this month! What a great combo. I decided to create a little file folder holder re make for my desk, using ” It’s the little things” line from Fancy pants and MyStik™ Permanent Strips dispenser for my adhesive.
I truly love being able to make something old , new again, and that’s just what I did with this project. The file holder was headed for the trash, and the file folders were given to me to re-purpose from a friend who was about to toss them. They had “some” writing on them, but nothing that couldn’t be covered with some gorgeous papers:)
I used a MyStik Permanent strips adhesive to adhere my paper to the plastic file folder holder, and also to adhere my papers , and accent pieces to my file folders them selves. Now the refills even come in a Value Pack for even more savings for you. yay!
All of these awesome “Journal Embellishments” from this line, made great additions to all of my file folder fronts. I’ll be writing file names on them to keep things organized.
I always love using Thin 3D Foam Squares to adhere buttons to my projects. Works great!
I’m always happy when I end up with something I can actually USE, from something that was about to be tossed. Now I’ll have no excuse not to have an organized desk right? lol Well, at least I’ll have something new and fun to set on my desk. yay!
Thanks so much for stopping by, and be sure to stop back to see all the Fancy Pants and Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L projects the Design Team will be posting.

Awesome idea- I should check if I have any folders to repurpose that I could use to organize my idea sheets that I have in a pile right now.

I love this project. I have some ugly file holders I purchased from Ikea that will be great for this! As always, you come through with another special project Vic!
