Step-by-Step
-
Step 1
Score your 4 3/4" x 9 1/4" piece of cardstock at 1" and 2" on the 9 1/4" side.
-
Step 2
Fold your cardstock over at the 2" score mark. This will form the spine of your book.
-
Step 3
Apply Sticky Strip™ to the end of the front panel.
-
Step 4
Adhere the 6 1/4" x 4 3/4" piece of cardstock (your front cover) to the exposed Sticky Strip™.
-
Step 5
Peel the plastic lining of your clear envelope seal, line the envelope up with the back of your book and tape down. Layer all envelopes on top of each other.
Five envelopes were used here. The envelopes will serve as page protectors for your photos. -
Step 6
Use your hole punch to make holes for your brads. You can use your thumb as a ruler on both ends.
The punch will go through both all the cardstock and envelopes with no problem -
Step 7
Attach your brads.
Variation:
Eyelets and ribbon can be used here instead of brads. -
Step 8
Decorate brag book to whatever theme that will hold your photos.

Enjoy
Does anyone have a photo of the INSIDE of this little book; once it's completed and actually holding photos? Also, did I miss it? What size photos will this hold? Can you get prints that are the same size as cards? TIA!
Cheers,
STacy
