So are you ready for one more favorite find?!?
I would like to introduce you to CD Calender Cases. They are just like regular CD jewel cases, but have a few different features and are made of a better quality material. Read on for more details!
A CD Calender case is made of a clear plastic that has about twice the strength and durability of a standard CD case.
…………………………………………………………………………
There is no “open space” at the spine, like standard cases and they actually can stand up easel style.
………………………………………………………………………..
In place of the open space that is normally there, you will see a small insert ridge. This ridge can be used to hold and display artwork, photos, calenders (hence the name) or anything else your creative brain can imagine.
………………………………………………………………………..
These cases will retail in a package of five for $3. We are bringing the cases to you for a multitude of purposes. One is that you could purchase them if you wished to use them as an upgrade of the free storage case we provide with our stamp sets. Also, as described earlier, there are many creative applications too! I thought I would start by sharing one idea with you that I created by using the new Spooky Sweets II stamp set!
I have found that there are a variety of things that will fit in the cases, which I will explore further over the coming weeks. One thing in particular that is appropriate for Halloween specifically is black licorice! It’s easy to trim to size and is the perfect thickness to fit int he cases, all lined up in a nice little row!
…………………………………………………………………………
Spooky Sweets II even includes a “spine label” that can be trimmed to embellish the spine of the case. How fun is that!!! What else can you think of to tuck inside?

These look very neat!! I bet there are tons of things that they can be used for!! I have loved all the peaks this week- especially the paper and the hospitality set but everything looks amazing!! “See” you tonight! 🙂
Bonnie Sharp says
Very cool! I absolutely love black licorice so I may have to try this for myself – never mind the little kiddies coming around!!
Maggie says
Oh, I want some!!!!!!!!! Great idea. I’m always looking for new ways to give gifts.
SueB says
How about filling it with recipe cards filled with family recipes? Then, when used as a stand the recipe being used would be in front. You’re killing my checkbook, BTW! :0) I’ll be ordering one of nearly everything.
Cindy Burke says
I would use these as gift packaging for square cards or gift tags.
Harley says
How cute is that?? I would totally fill it up with scratch off lottery tickets for my Grandmother! 😀

Rachel Hope says

Your creativity always astounds me. One of my favorite things about Papertrey is all of the items you create with your products. This makes me want to buy them even more. My wallet is going to be thinner this month:)
Crafty Math Chick says

Nichole,
Those are neat and look so sturdy. I can’t tell from looking; do you think they would work for my CD Photo Cubes? Check them out here:

If so, I’d love to highlight that on my blog . . .
