Step 5
Peel the plastic lining of your clear envelope
seal, line the envelope up with the back of your
book and tape down. Layer all envelopes on
top of each other.
Five envelopes were used here. The envelopes
will serve as page protectors for your photos.
Step 6
Use your hole punch to make holes for your
brads. You can use your thumb as a ruler on
both ends.
The punch will go through both all the
cardstock and envelopes with no problem
Step 7
Attach your brads.
