    This cash-stuffing budgeting concept has yet to take off in Europe, so it ends up being rather expensive to order everything from the United States. Therefore, this is a very valuable video for those who want to keep their cash-stuffing binders organized and aesthetically pleasing.

    Hands-down, one of the best DIY laminated vellum envelope tutorials I’ve ever seen! I have bought bought these and yes you’re right they’re very pricey, but I will tell you they’re worth the cost because how long it took you to just to make one OMG I could not imagine having a shop and having to custom make these

    34:50 for the hole punches, that hole puncher has a slider on the bottom to adjust the guide on the top so that the holes are centered. you can adjust it from personal and a7 and others and it'll align with the hole punches

    Appreciate this so much. I just brought a set for like £80 but wanted like another 30 more, which was another small fortune. SO I got all the kit myself to make my own XD. This was so, so helpful. Thank you! Think they're easy to do when you know how but are time consuming. Love though that I can now change styles or personalise them as much and as often as I want!

      I have to play around with trying with one lamination because last time I did that the vellum just slipped out. I think maybe I didn’t run it through the laminator when it wasn’t enough. But honestly I like having it doubled because it makes them even studier
