Assembly Instructions This is a formulaic project. That means you will follow a quick and easy Formula called 3-­2-­1 to cut out the Craft On B&T paper and then you will follow a fast and simple process to create and assemble your pages. It also means that you have a lot of creative freedom to add your own flair when creating your pages. Although photos of sample page layouts have been included in this guide, your page layouts could look very different depending on how you choose to mix and match the various components on your own pages. Have fun creating pages using the combinations that you love and that best suit your photos. The pages for this 3-­2-­1 Craft On Everyday Life Album project are created by mixing and matching the Craft On B&T 1”, 2” and 3” paper strips with the cardstock photo mats, the Craft On Complements and the images and titles from the cut-­apart sheet. Firstly, lay out the (20) 6” x 8” White Daisy Cardstock bases and distribute the B&T strips, cardstock photo mats and decorative elements such as stickers and die cuts from the Craft On Complements and the images and titles from the cut-­apart sheet to create combinations that appeal to you. Every double-­page layout requires: • (2) 1” x 6” strips (one for each page) • (2) 2” x 6” strips (one for each page) • (2) 3” x 6” strips (one for each page) • (2) 1/2” x 6” zip strips (one for each page) • (2) 4” x 6” photo mats (one for each page;; to create 3” x 4” photo mats, simply cut the 4” x 6” photo mat in half)

• Your choice of die cuts and stickers from the Craft On Complements • Your choice of images and titles from the cut-­apart sheet • Craft On Sequins to embellish your finished pages. Now, move the components around until you are happy with your pages. Experiment with different ways to arrange the paper strips and consider whether you want 3” x 4” or 4” x 6” photo mats on the layouts, or a combination of both. Look at the sample layouts on the next pages for inspiration and ideas. Finally, adhere the components on the pages using a combination of adhesive runner, Micro Glue Dots, Mini Glue Dots, Thin 3-­D Foam Dots and Thin 3-­D Foam Tape. N.B. In the sample pages below, one of the double-­page layouts has been split and used as the title page (layout 1) and last page (layout 11) for this album project. Remember, the pages below are just a sample of what you can create with the materials provided when you follow the 3-­2-­1 Formula. Your pages can look quite different depending on the way you combine the components for each page. Some clarifying notes have been added beside each layout to explain some creative elements on the page. Please note that photos will need to be trimmed to 3 ¾” x 5 ¾” to fit on the 4” x 6” photo mats and to 2 ¾” x 3 ¾” to fit on the 3” x 4” photo mats. You can do that by trimming ¼” off both the height and the width of each 4” x 6” and 3” x 4” photo.
