small legal pads that are 5" x 8" (I got mine at Sam's Club)

Instructions:
tape the 2 pieces of paper together, right sides out on front cover side only. This is just to help it not move apart when you are inserting it into the laminate pouch.

Decorate the cover if you would like

Add to the laminate pouch. run through laminator.

score at 5 5/8" and 5 7/8" on the 11" side. Score hard through the laminate

slit the inside back cover lightly at 7/8" down from top of laminate and from 1/8" from score line to 1/8" from end of decorative paper. You want to only go through the 1 layer of laminate and the 1 paper.

find center of the spine length and width. Use 1/8" hole punch. Add 1/8" eyelet and set.

Add your elastic into the hole leaving the knot on the inside.

Add the notebook to the slot on the cover.
