Question about making a checkbook cover for duplicate checks
 
What do you use for the piece that is placed under the top check and copy? I am going to try cutting the plastic piece from a regular cover but I’m thinking there has to be something better to use!<o:p></o:p>

I use a plastic file folder -in bright orange= cut to size. Have been using it for several years now; may need to
check and see if it needs replacing.

I just use a piece of a recipe card, cut to fit.

What about using a piece of template plastic?

How about cutting a piece of the back cover of a spiral notebook. You'd have the holes to hand stitch it into your checkbook cover.

I have these softish plastic file folders that might work well for that. Asst primary colors too! If you want me to send you one, pm me.

Another possibility ... cut apart one of those pocket envelopes for 3 ring binders that you slide a page.

Hardly ever write checks anymore, but you could buy a plastic folder of cutting board, and cut a piece to fit.
