Care Card Holders

As I make the final preparations for my first craft show of the season I wanted to share some care card holders I created.  These will be placed with the cutting boards and various night lights that I have created this year.  Since our booth gets very busy I thought it would be best to set the cards with the product so the customer could grab one rather than one of forgetting to place it in the bag.

 

To make my holders I started with an old cassette case cover.  If you don't have any of these lying around the house and want to try this project you can still find these things at the thrift store.  I bought some a while back for .50 cent each. 

 

To cover the cassette case cut rectangles in the following sizes (cases will vary in size so check your measurements but these were for a standard size/shape case):

 

1 @ 1 1/2" x 4 1/4" 

 

2 @ 2 5/8" x 4 1/8"

 

1 @ 1 1/8" x 4"

 

Then since these were being used for cutting board and light care I decided to use different characters to finish off the cover.  I used one of the Chef Mice from Marjorie Ann Designs Italian Mice file for the cutting boards.  For the lights I used Yoda from the Galaxy Friends file.

 

Repurposed these cassette covers also make great business card holders.  I made some a while back that I use to hold our business cards during the shows as well.  You can check out that post here.
