paper corners at angle up to
chipboard corners on both covers.

layers of paper and chipboard at
once). Repeat for all pages.
Ink edges of pages with Distress
Ink and Ink Blending Tool. (see

Assemble book by stacking pages
between both chipboard covers
lining up holes on the left.
Insert binder rings through both
holes and secure.
