  Step 1

  Cut the 12X12 sheet of scrapbook paper into strips that are 6" X 2.25"
  Cut the copy paper into strips that measure 2.5" X 2"

• 

  Step 2

  OPTIONAL
  Round all the corners, using the punch, of the 6"X 2.25" strips of scrapbook paper.

• 

  Step 3

  Turn in and crease 3/4" of the cover (scrapbook strip), forming a flap.

• 

  Step 4

  Insert 12-15 sheets of the 2.5" X 2" copy paper under the flap and staple securely.

• 

  Step 5

  Fold up the opposite end of the cover strip and tuck it under the flap, enclosing the copy paper sheets,

• 

  Step 6

  then crease.

• 

  Step 7

  VERY OPTIONAL
  Using a small design punch (in my case~~a paw print punch),

• 

  Step 8

  embellish the larger flap.

  I have also seen, and made a few, where buttons or other little trinkets are glued over the staple to hide it.
  I need to find some Christmas scrapbook paper that I like to make more to ship with my Christmas collars!
  Hope you have fun trying this latest project!
