- Cut a 1 strip from the
5 x 7 Excel Mat Board.
- Lay the two pieces of
Excel Mat Board next to each, leaving a 1/8 gap.
- Cut a strip of black book
cloth 1 wide.
- Use Great Tape
to adhere the book cloth to the 1 piece (spine) and the larger cut
piece. Maintain the gap, because it will become the hinge.

the top, and one half inch up from the bottom punch two small holes
½ apart.

for the inside pages. Punch holes into the paper that line up with
the 4 punched spine holes.

to attach the rattan, spine cover, and inside pages
of the book together.

Fishwrap Paper for the insides of the cover. Attach with Great
Tape.

polymer clay. It should be about 1/8 thick and 2 square. Stamp image
into the clay. Allow this to dry thoroughly. (Air, heat gun or toaster
oven.) Paint the clay with Perfect Paper Adhesive and

a piece of black card stock. Coat the paper with Duo Embellishing
Adhesive and let dry. Apply Gildenglitz - Variegated
and brush off excess with a Texture Sponge.

and gilded squares together with Great Tape. Attach
