About this class

The Cinch machine is seriously one of my most favorite things! It’s so easy to take a couple of pieces of chipboard, some pretty paper and create the most amazing DIY BOOKS, and that’s exactly what this class is about. First, you will learn all the ins and outs of using the Cinch machine. Once you know the basics, I’ll teach four different bookbinding styles that can be recreated in any size, for any occasion. In addition to the actual bookbinding, I will share 12 different creative page concepts, perfect for making the most clever, unique, and interactive books ever! I named the class “It’s a Cinch” because it’s SO quick and so easy to make DIY books from scratch! Let me show you how!

*NOTE: If you do not own a Cinch machine, you can create the covers and inside pages and take them to a local copy store where they could bind your project for you.

All class lessons will be available on Tuesday, July 13th at 8am ET.
