Baby Brag Book
designed by Colleen Chumbley

Project: Baby Brag BookSUPPLIES:
Pre-made blank 6" x 6" 6-page board book
Brillance stamp pads (2 colors)
4-way tag book
Ranger Distressing Ink
Ribbon and fibers
Xyron X2 Roll-On Adhesive
Rub-on letter B
Heavy metal staples
EK Fastenater Decorative Stapler

DIRECTIONS:
1. Start with a pre-made blank 6" x 6" - 6 page board book.

2. Use Brilliance stamp pads in the color of your choice.  I like these because they are pearlescent, water-based, acid-free, archival, smudge-resistant.  I smear the pads all over each page one color at a time.  Do the same process with the 4-way tag book. I used less Brilliance ink and more Ranger Distressing Ink to make it pop more.  Let dry before going to the next step.

3. Ranger Distressing Pad is then used. I smear that on the edges and over the colors to tone some of the brightness down just a little.

Tag on cover4. Now, using the dry 4-way folded tag, I folded the ribbon in half and then adhere it to the center back of the tag book with Xyron X2 Roll-On Adhesive. Then adhere it to the front of the book.  Add the rub-on letter “B”, the fibers and the heavy metal staples with my EK Fastenater™ Decorative Stapler. 

5. Then decorate away each page.  Use the same theme as the baby's room, or his or her favorite character!
