Here is the Part 6 of our tutorial series for creating the "Mushroom Collector Mini Book", using a digital kit. The kit can be found here:

We have a lot of work to do today - cut out the remaining elements from the remaining printed out pages of the kit, create a binding and attach the previously assembled 5 pages of the book to the binding, create a cover and a spine. The video turned out a bit long. Hopefully, those of you who like all the details of the process to be thoroughly explained, will appreciate that.
There is one more part of the series left; we still need to use up the little fussy cut elements which we have been saving up for later. We will glue them onto the pages of the 4 little booklets. Almost everything will be used. I have only two strips of paper left from the whole kit! :)
This last video will be uploaded in a few more days. Thanks for your patience!
I have created a playlist where I will consolidate all the tutorials related to this project:
