I love it! I think I might like it without the flower though but I love the ribbon. I have a similar hole puncher. What are the dimensions of the cardstock and how big is the paper? I would like to make them too!

Re: MY DIY MENU'S
the paper itself is 4.25' X 10' the cardstock is 11.5' X 4.75 the 1' extra in the card stock is to fold over onto the paper then punch the holes and add the eyelets after you have it all lined up.
i'm going to use silver (or navy blue if i can get them) eyelets on the actual menu's the white ones were just what i had sitting around for a sample(i know they really stand out against the dark card stock oh well this is why we make samples)
i'm looking into getting tiny dog tags made and putting a chain through the holes like FH's dog tag chain since we don't want to over do the 'Armyness' the little details will pull every thing togeher

Re: MY DIY MENU'S
Question...do you need a special tool to insert the brads? Or just a hole punch and then stick them through?
