SNEEK PEEKS
FYI: ...make sure you have really tacky glue!!! the flip flops are kinda heavy!!! also...have some matching brads and flowers handy {I used alot of these~}...you could also use some summer stickers if you have any laying around....
Do these steps in ADVANCE...will make it alot easier later!!!
1. also, cut your papers ahead of time...cut the 6x4 sections FIRST and then cut the 9X8 and 2x8 pieces out {I say this because I accidently cut on of my papers wrong, so I just found another matching double side piece of paper and used it
} 2. I decide I had alot of pictures I wanted to use, so I also cut another page so I would have extra pages in my book
so feel free to add some more pages if you like!!!! 3. follow the directions on cutting the holes with your hole punch...I used a pen and made all my marks before I punced them out...I only marked the last page of the book that way you would even see it since it was the last page~~~~~ {don't worry, you won't see the pen marks later}
4. also put together all of your little flip flops {add the string to them like the directions say}...this took me longer than I expected and keep in mind, you do not have to use them all if you do not want too! I only ended up using 5 pair instead of 6
...I also stamped all the edges of the flip flops as well 4. use the stamp pad and stamp the edges of ALL of your papers that you cut out! {the 9x8 pices, 2x8 pieces, and 6x4 pieces}....I rubbed the edges of each of the pages on the front and back....
