Jan found her paint sample cards at her local paint store where they had a section for kids. As you can tell, they were shaped like crayons! While these crayon shapes are a lot of fun, you can use any paint sample cards to make an album.
Decorate the samples as desired. Jan wrote "My Book of Colors" on the front page. She said that the color of each paint sample was written on the back of each paint sample card. She suggests using it as a unique way to teach colors.
She used a Bind-It All machine (compare prices on Bind-It All) to join her pages together. You can also use ribbon or binding rings available at office supply stores by punching a hole. She also suggests tying a few ribbons around the binding ring or other binding just to add a little extra embellishment.
Jan also shared another way she made a mini album or book using these techniques and some old greeting cards. Check it out here.
