Instructions Procedure

1. Place your phone case on top of the scrapbook paper and outline it. Leave about an extra inch all around.
2. Apply a thin coat of modge podge on the inner part of the paper (the white side).
3. Place your phone case on a flat surface with the inside part facing upwards.
4. Place the scrapbook paper inside the phone cover. Flatten the edges with your fingers.
5. Wait for the modge podge to dry (about 2 hours).
6. Cut the extra paper with the knife. Also cut the camera lens opening and any other openings.
7. Apply a single coat of modge podge on the entire cover and leave it to dry.
8. If you have trinkets, avoid the scrapbook paper altogether and attach them to the outer part of the phone case using modge podge.
9. Once the modge podge dries, use your gorgeous phone.

The designs are so many you’ll be spoilt for choice!
