Magazine Wallets - Eclipse Style

I made these a while ago and I'm just getting them posted.  I'm a couponer.  Whew--finally out of the closet on that one.  Anyway, I love food coupons, those loyalty cards that earn you free sandwiches and burritos, and gift cards that come free with a purchase.  They take up too much room in my wallet, but I have to carry the darn things around or I never use them.  Hence--the coupon wallet.
It's made out of scrapbooking paper, but can also be made out of magazine pages, family photos or whatever paper interests you.  This is one I made in honor of the New Moon movie opening--which leads to another embarassing admission that I am a Twilighter.  I'm also a Harry Potter and Fablehaven fan so I guess I'm at least 20% geek.  My sister (Team Jacob) uses hers as a full on wallet.


Thanks to a great tutorial I found from my friends at Craftster.com, this wallet came together pretty easily.  You just need an 8 1/2 x 11 double sided sheet of paper and a plastic sheet protector.  I tweeked mine with an additional credit card holder, but that's completely optional.  Hope you like it!!
