{January Main kit} - "Goals"

Supplies needed:

Basic tool kit

Sanding paper

Index tabs (bought at an office supply store)

Ok..lets get started….{ at the end of the project…you will have a TON of extras…that was my main goal for this kit club…to be able to do a project and then have leftovers for other things like layouts cards….anther mini book. and so-on…}

Prep work:

Ok you have 10 inserts. You are going to take those inserts and cut them down…and what I mean by that is you want to cascade them…starting with the first insert cut off the edge at 2 ½ and then 3 and then 3 ½ and then 4, 4 ½, 5, 5 ½, 6, 6 ½ and the final one you DO NOT cut it is 7. Does that make sense? When you see the pics you will get it.. Now take your papers front and back and trim those down…to slide in the inserts. Now remember the some of the paper is double sided… and let me tell you it looks so pretty all together….**note all the “backsides are for journaling about your goals”
