So Tweet 6x12 Book
I created this 6x12 book to featured different sized pages. One of the great things about using the
Bind It All to bind books is that you really do have the freedom to do whatever you like. A book like
this, with pages varying in size from 6” x 12” down to 4” x 6” would have been impossible to bind
with binder rings alone (unless you used 12 of them). I love that I can create truly customized
projects!
Supplies:
¾” Brown O-wires – Zutter
Patterned Paper, Diecut Paper, Diecuts, Alpha Stickers – My Little Shoebox
Ribbon, Trims, Tulle, Chenille Stems – Offray, Floral Supply, May Arts
Buttons -- Joann’s, Autumn Leaves
Paint – Kaiser Craft, Making Memories
Stick Pins – Oasis
Plush Shapes – Lakeshore Learning
Poms – LA Fashion District
Acrylic & Felt Flowers – American Crafts
Felt, Craft String – Joann’s
Clip – Heidi Swapp
Diecuts – Quickutz, AccuCut
Cardstock – Bazzill, The Paper Company
White Pen – Uniball Signo
Ink – Colorbox Chalk

I created this mini book for a class I taught to celebrate children and flowers. This
is a perfect Mother’s Day gift and can be made from coasters so it is economical too!
Paint several coasters with acrylic paint or crackle paint about 1” in from each
edge. You’ll cover the middle of each page with paper so no need to paint what won’
t be seen. You can even cover the page with Glimmer Mist and avoid using paper
or paint at all. I used 4”x4” coasters but you can also use Zutter Covers and Inner
Pages. I cut patterned paper down to 3.5” square and covered the center of each
page. Then I bound the book with the Bind It All using ½” Antique Brass O-Wires.
These colored wires are perfect for evoking a vintage feel on any project. Then I
decorated the book and generously tied ribbons and trims to the binding wires.
Supplies:
Cardstock – Bazzill
Coasters – Diecut using the Accu-Cut
Paint- Tim Holtz/Ranger (crackle), Making Memories
Paper – Cosmo Cricket
Mist – Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist in Tiger Lily, Iridescent Gold, and Patina
½” Antique Brass O-Wires – Zutter
Flowers, Decorative Tape – Prima
Large Fabric Flower - Imaginisce
Heart – Heidi Grae
Pearls and gems - KaiserCraft
Sequins – Athenian, Los Angeles
Buttons – American Crafts, Autumn Leaves
Tissue – Target
Diecuts – Quickutz, Quickutz Silhouette
Punches – Fiskars
Adhesive – 3L Scrapbook Adhesives, PVA
Ribbons – May Arts, Offray, Prima, Floral Supply, American Crafts
Stick Pin – Oasis

Cosy-All
These days everything has a "cosy", from Starbuck’s cups to iPods to water bottles.
It's just a fun little thing that makes your stuff "comfortable". So what about Cover-
I finally figured it out! These photos are just the Cover-All without the book inside
isn't glued on).
1. Lay two layers of felt under the Cover-All and trim to be one inch larger than
the Cover-All on all sides.
2. Using scissors, snip the fabric where the envelope on the back of the Cover-All
opens for the plastic sheet to slide in and out of the Cover-All. Do this on the top and
the bottom of the cover.
3. Place the Cover-All to the side.
4. On one of the felt sheets cut from the notch you snipped on one side to the notch
on the other side. This will be the inside of the Cover-All and will form the slot for
that plastic sheet to slide into when you make your book. Do not cut BOTH sheets,
just one.
5. Place the Cover-All between the two sheets of felt (the one solid piece on the
outside and the cut in half piece on the inside). Sew closed with a sewing machine.
6. Trim the excess felt from the Cover-All using pinking shears.
7. Slip the Cosy-All off the Cover-All so you can embroider designs on the cover. I
used a bit of paint on a foam brush to dry brush the book for a distressed effect.
When you've finished, slip the Cosy-All back on the Cover-All and decorate the
book inside.

scrapping!)
