COVER CLOTH AND PAPERS
Part of the fun is choosing your own cover materials, so we are asking you to bring 

• two 12X12 pieces of decorative paper for your cover,  
• 1/4 yard of fabric for your bookcloth.  
• two 12X12 pieces for the flyleaves / endpapers (card stock weight works best). 

You can find paper anywhere scrapbooking supplies are sold. Mixing and matching colors and patterns makes your book look creative and personal.
