Are you ready to take those boring binders and make them the envy of all of your friends! Lets get started! (Below I will post a picture of some of the ones I made)</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The great thing about these binder covers if that you can personalize them however you want! And make them according to your own style! </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Step 1. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Go to google and search for things like (or use the ones I have listed below)</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- Lilly Pulitzer Patterns</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- Lee Jofa Patterns</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- Preppy Patterns/Backgrounds</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- Vineyard Vines Patterns</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- Floral Patterns</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- Pink Argyle Patterns</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- etc.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Step 2. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Open up Word or Pages (I used Pages)</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- Make sure you have a blank page</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- Insert the first pattern you want to use</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- Open up <i>The Inspector</i></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>- </i>Go to the tab <i>Wrap</i></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- Make sure that your photo is NOT creating a Wrap</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- Adjust your first photo to whatever size you want the pattern to be and place the first on in the left corner</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">* Repeat this so that it looks like a continuing pattern all over the entire paper (even the middle)</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">* You might occasionally leave some blank in the middle if you have problems with your patterns (but you will later cover it with a box)</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Step 3. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Your page should be completely filled with your pattern. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- On the top there should be a button that says <i>Shapes</i></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- Click a square </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- Make the square white (or another corresponding color if you want) make sure to also make the border white (or another color for a thin border effect)</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- Stretch out the white box so that it is a rectangle stretched across your page </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Step 4. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Now you should have a pattern on the paper and a completely white box</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- Go to <i>Shapes </i>again and get another square </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- Make the square whatever color you want the border to be</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- Stretch out the rectangle so that it is somewhat thin and put it along the bottom of your white box</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- Repeat this for the top border piece</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Step 5. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Make sure you have your pattern down, your white box, and your border on the box</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">- Type in your subject and then pick a cool font and whatever size you want ( I think the bigger size looks better) put it in a corresponding color </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Print it out and enjoy! It looks great with corresponding colored binders. </span></div>
