How to add borders to your study bible or bible journal.
I saw several examples of people using washi tape, or how to draw boarders, but I like to add variety, and learn how do do things in different ways.
First if you a using a bible with fragile pages test a small corner on a page in an unnoticeable place. I used Elmer's school glue. Any decorative paper will work but I suggest using thicker paper.
Cut a strip of paper the length you want to fit your page. Spread the glue on the strip and place on the paper, place a paper between the page you are gluing the strip to and the one behind it. This will prevent the glue from soaking through thin paper, if you put to much glue it will prevent the glue from getting squished off the side and gluing your pages together. leave your book open to dry. Straighten the page before you let it dry!
In this photo I didn't straighten out the wrinkles, and I let it dry |
And ta-da all finished!
