The paper paperclips in a gift presentation/storage matchbox makes a fun project on its own. Cut the clips out of heavier-weight paper than the matchbox. I used American Crafts cardstock for the clips.

Everything's a cinch to make, so no proper how-tos, just some tips and breezy notes!
* I like to print the Memo pages on yellow paper for a "legal pad" look.
* The Tab-top version pages interlock, like when you interlace your fingers to ponder something. For tabby memos of more than two pages, stack like-tabbed pages together before interlocking.
* PaperClips: cut matchbox out of 90gsm paper, cut clips out of cardstock. The clips look great in metallic card!
* Memos: make the page holes with a hand-held circle paper punch (I used 1/16" size). You can join the pages with craft thread bows or mini-brads. Cut 25cm (10in) of craft thread for each bow.
That's about it. Have fun making your memos and clips. You don't have to go paperless in a digital world!
Thanks for sharing this Susan - lovely and inventive as always.
