Instructions:
- Cut a 7” length of the dots ribbon. Fold 1/2” under on
each end then glue the ribbon to the outer binding of the album, folding
the ends to the inside. With the remaining dots ribbon, make a shoestring
bow with 1 1/2” loops and tails. Cut an inverted “V”
into each tail, then set the bow aside.
- Cut the 14” ribbons in half. Wrap the red and white grosgrain
ribbons alternating on the front cover, gluing the ends inside. Wrap
the red/white check ribbon between the red and white grosgrains on the
left side, then the gingham along the right edge, gluing the ends to
the inside. Glue the stitches ribbons centered on the white grosgrain
and the white side of the double-faced ribbon to the center red grosgrain.
Cut a 4 7/8”x6 1/2” piece of white cardstock and glue it
to the inside front cover to conceal the ribbon ends.
- 3. Use the template to cut an oval tag from white cardstock, mat it
on red cardstock with a thin border, then punch a hole at one end. Write
“My Friends” or another message on the tag, then tie the
thread onto the tag and knot the ends. Glue the knot to the bow back,
then glue the bow to the album cover.
