<p>[QUOTE="georgiajeff, post: 1538345, member: 26029"]I took a SBA Dansco page and turned it over (the Susan B. Anthony header is on the back bottom of page). Then removed all plastic covers. Took an exacto knife and trimmed the holes to fit the coins I wanted to put in the page. You can also use a dremmel tool and a sanding bit if you only have a little bit to take off. Next I layed out my page in a word processor (I used WORD, but anything would work). I printed the page on white paper and held it up to the light, and kept making adjustments to how the text was spaced until I liked it and it lined up under my new circle ports on the page. Then at a crafts store (I went to Michaels, but anyplace like HobbyLobby or any craft store) and found a RUB ON transfer page. The brand I uses was GRAFIC RUB-ONZ. Now in order to make the rub on page, I had to flip my text (print it backwards so that when applied it would be readable). I followed the directions on the RUB-ONZ and printed my page. Then I applied the rub on by simply peeling the back off putting it on my Dansco page and rubbing it with a Popsicle stick (included with the RUB-ONZ). It's a little tricky, but if I can do it, I imagine just about anybody can. Not too bad, huh? <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
