On the reverse side of the folder, I used scrapbook paper and cut to fit. Then secured it down with glue.
I have a lot of spiral notebooks left around the house. I prefer to use loose paper so I cut the spiral with cutters.
Secure the paper with binder clips.
Back to the folder, I cut the flap a little closer so it could be easily tucked inside the envelope.

You are now ready to clip your paper to the cardboard folder. Plus in the side slot you can put paper documents, a sticky pad, or notes. It is easy to detach paper, or rip paper out after writing.
When you have a dollar tree cutting board that is no longer good for food, don't toss or recycle it. Turn it into a clip board! With the 3/$1.00 mini legal pads, two binder clips and the cutting board, you can make something to do a shopping list, To Do list, or even a Honey Do list!
