    2. Cut a designer series paper (DSP) cover for the front and back
    3. Cut the inside pages with Whisper White card stock (as many as you’d like!)
  1. Adhere the DSP to the front and back cover of the brag book chipboard using liquid glue
  2. Stamp the sentiment of your choice with Gumball Green ink onto Whisper White card stock and punch out with the Decorative Label punch.
  3. Punch a piece of DSP with the decorative Label punch and cut in half. Adhere each half to the back of the stamped white piece as shown in the photo.

  5. Adhere the entire sentiment piece to the front of the mini brag book using dimensionals.
  6. Color rhinestones using permanent markers and adhere to the front of your sentiment piece as shown.
