Mini-File Goodbye Card

Work obligations have prevented me from crafting much lately, unfortunately. But I absolutely had to make a goodbye card for my fantastic co-worker. She's going back to school to become a French teacher, and I am going to miss her a lot!

This card is a mini version of the files that we work with everyday. It has all the accoutrements of the regular-sized files, except I made them cute-sized!

At left, real-life file; At right, mini-file.

I made the card by measuring the proportions of the larger file, and then cutting it down to about 25% of the size. So all that was required was a legal-sized navy blue folder, blue paper for the tracking sheet on the front, and plain-old white paper for the inside documents (those were also modeled on real file documents, but no pictures here, because I have to protect privacy!).

I think it's quite cute - and she seemed to really like it!
