Cut two pieces of patterned cardstock to 4.5" x 12". Cut four pieces of solid cardstock to 4.25" x 11".
Glue the two pieces of patterned cardstock together back to back. Score at 5 7/8 and 6 1/8. (This makes a cover with a 1/4" binding area.) Score the solid pieces (inside pages) at 5.5".
Set the depth gauge on your Crop A Dile and punch a hole in the binding area 1/2" from the edge on each side.
If desired, ink your bamboo skewer to match project and cut to 4.25".
Use a wire twist tie to thread the hair band through all the pages and cover and attach to one end of skewer.
Thread through the other hole.
