How to Make Paper Mini's

Step 12Printing, Prolonging

Print onto lightweight card stock, making sure that your printer is set to either Best or Photo to ensure good quality results.

Prolong the life of paper minis by using self-adhesive film (also known as sticky backed plastic).

Cut off a piece of the film large enough to cover the printed card and leave a little extra space around the edges. Peel off the backing and place the film face down on a flat surface. At this point you may want to weight each corner down to prevent the film from lifting.

Take the printout, ensuring the printed side is face down, and, starting with the short edge, roll the card onto the film making sure that you don't twist or pull the card to prevent creases in the film.

Using the back of a spoon, or any similar smooth tool, firmly rub the card onto the film, starting from the center and working your way outwards. Trim off the excess film and 'pop' any bubbles and flatten them out .
