Ever been scrapbook shopping at an expo, convention, LSS or any place for that matter, and you just DON'T want your paper, by the sheet, to get bent or creased or *touched* for that matter. Well, that's why I bought this! I bring this with me any time I go shopping now, and after it's bought, it goes straight in here! Keeps it safe and sound until it can be put away. I love this folder... can't wait to get it in Nutmeg too. :D
